Directing Class with Patrick Kriwanek Presented by Scary Cow
Nuts and Bolts of Directing a Low Budget Film
at the world-famous, Academy Award winning theater, Stage 2 of the Saul
Zaentz Media Center in Berkeley.
This directing lecture will concentrate on the pragmatic, granular, moment-to-moment reality of moving from conception through all phases of production:
- location scouting and the securing of locations
- crewing up
- the casting process
- vision elements with the choice of the Director of Photography
- working with the Art Departments
- coordinating of all the departments in the days before the shoot
- leadership of the cast and crew on set
- tracking of dailies and reshoots during the shoot
- the editorial process
- director's responsibilities in marketing and distribution
There will be 30 minutes of Q&A at the end of the lecture, and Patrick Kriwanek will be available
for an additional hour after 10 PM.
