Film Project

Please use the time in lab to work on your film(s). Follow the steps below to make sure you are on track:

1. Get an idea (do you have an idea?)
2. Create a treatment/film script
3. Cast or schedule the shooting of your film
4. Shoot your film
5. Upload your film stock and begin editing
6. Complete editing
7. Complete film (export)

By the end of this class you should have completed steps 1-3 and some of 4-5.

Some advice: Don't wait for everyone! If you are the editor of this film project, go ahead and start creating your opening and closing credits. You may also search for pictures/photos or shots to establish setting (establishing shots). If you are the sound designer, find music or sound cues to use in your film. Etc. Editing takes a lot of time. Get working!

HOMEWORK: complete the shooting of your film; complete Romeo & Juliet.
