Learn Movie Magic Budgeting & Scheduling, the recognised industry standard software for scheduling and budgeting films and TV drama, and transform your producing skills.
Taught by working industry professionals through a combination of lectures, practical demonstrations using computer projection, group tutorials and one-to-one tuition, incorporating valuable advice from a professional producer's point of view, you leave with a thorough understanding of how to use Movie Magic.
Course Goals
Feel confident using both Movie Magic Scheduling and Budgeting software on your own productions.
Movie Magic Budgeting & Scheduling are complementary packages: information in scheduling may be exported to budgeting to assist in the process of costing the project. Please note that this Movie Magic software replaces Entertainment Partners Scheduling and Budgeting, the former industry standard software for production management.
While on the course and for one month after you will receive complementary membership with LFA networking Filmmaker's Club.
