Hello and welcome!
The right
short film can be a great tool for reaching and inspiring young minds, but how
can we draw out everything it has to offer? During our sessions, we'll screen
and critique a variety of short films, analyze a short screenplay, and
participate in writing exercises designed to reveal how scenes, sequences, and
plot elements are pieced together to create exceptional cinematic storytelling.
I'm really looking forward to trading insights with a group of fellow
educators!
