Are you a filmmaker looking to produce and possibly direct or write your first feature or a more ambitious short film? If so, this is the course for you.
Our Producing Foundation provides an intensive overview of practical producing for individuals and production teams with expertise in a specific area of filmmaking who are looking to gear up and prepare themselves for bigger-budget projects.
Taught through a combination of classroom seminars and practical sessions will enable you to put the theory into practice. Seminars are delivered in an interactive environment by experienced producers and also feature guest speakers who are experts in their own field. These sessions give you a firm grounding in the realities of producing for the film and TV industry and your own projects can be used as examples in class for comparison and direct feedback.
Our Producing Foundation is also ideal for individuals who are working on a script and want to gain a realistic overview of the complete development process.
While on the course and for one month after you will receive complementary membership with LFA networking Filmmaker's Club.
