Directing Masterclass

/ Course Info
/ Course Details
A comprehensive hands-on course aimed at junior creatives who are looking to either start directing or make the leap from small scale studio set-ups to slightly bigger conceptual/talent-led shoots. We’ll start with the basics and all the questions you were afraid to ask, before moving onto the planning and executing of more technical or larger scale shoots. Each section will be peppered with advice, tips and tricks from DOPs, 1st ADs, producers and other promo directors – as well as their stories of where it’s gone wrong and how to avoid that happening to you!
