About this class

Tell your story to the world: no film experience needed! In Reel Stories, you will write, direct, and edit your own five-minute documentary film that speaks to who you are, what you’re interested in, and where you live. If you have the passion, we’ll provide the rest: intensive training in pre-production, shooting, sound design, and editing, and all the gear you need to bring your vision to life.

Reel Stories is a 3-week long, all-day bootcamp held Monday thru Friday. At the end of the bootcamp, your work will be shown at a community screening, complete with an audience Q&A!

WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS CLASS:

  • learn the basics of documentary filmmaking by producing your own 5-minute documentary project
  • bring your concepts to life and stylize your filmmaking
  • learn sound, camera, interview techniques, and editing software
  • work with your peers to support their projects, give and recieve feedback, and help with each others’ shoots
  • share your completed film at a community screening and Q&A

Note: this class requires an interview with a mentor! This is just to learn more about your skill level, interests and set some expectations for the program — plus a chance to ask questions if you have any. We’ll share your acceptance news before class kicks off!
