ABOUT ANDREW'S CLASS:
The transition from photography to filmmaking is easier than you think -- and it opens a world of opportunities in your career. Apply your still photography know-how and add in a few essentials to get started on creating a movie, a commercial, short films, independent films, and other types of video, for your existing clients or for a new position within a production company.
In this course, food-photographer-turned-executive-producer Andrew Scrivani navigates the similarities and differences between the two art forms and explains the terminology, technical differences, supporting crew, software and everything in between.
Many photographers are being asked to shoot and produce video, yet struggle because video is like a different language. This course navigates the challenges of making the transition, using Andrew’s personal experiences to explore the options that photographers have in making a jump into the film world. Don't start from scratch at film school -- build on your existing photography skills to learn film production essentials to learn filmmaking faster.
