Do you have what it takes: passion, tenacity and a stubborn need to create? If yes, then we have a one-day introduction to Producing workshop for you!

Until recently, filmmaking had been looked at as an expensive career option but with the emergence of new technology and the success of online streaming sites such as YouTube and FunnyOrDie, the opportunities are now endless.

In our four-hour intensive workshop we provide a look inside the world of independent film producing – creating work outside the studio system.  This workshop is for individuals who are planning on producing a first feature film, short or web series and don’t know where to begin.
