Event
Sci-Fi Fan Films Production Workshop
If you've ever dreamed of making a Science Fiction Fan Film based on Star Wars or another of your favorite films, or you have tried and now want to learn more in order to make a better fan film, then this event is for you. Two separate filmmaking seminars will be taught by seasoned professionals and filmmaking instructors on the campus of UAT. There will be two sessions: a Pre-Production series on Saturday, June 3, and a Post-Production series on Saturday, July 8. In between, you will have time to create or start your own Fan Film. The 2nd Annual International Horror and Sci-Fi Film Festival will have a Star Wars Fan Film category-a perfect place to submit your finished film.
