“Script Breakdown & Film Scheduling Workshop”
As a film or TV director, one of the most important aspects of your job is to understand the film schedule.
Before you can create an accurate budget (time and money) for your film, you need an experienced AD or PM to break your script down and prepare a shooting schedule.
This “one liner” enables you to discover the total number of “real” shooting days, find out how many locations you have and generate a cast Day-Out-Of-Days.
A properly designed shooting schedule is fundamental to your directing process. Without an experienced Production Manager or Assistant Director to prepare this board, you will have an unrealistic budget which will have a negative impact on your entire production.
If you are a Directors Guild of Canada (BC) member and you live in Vancouver, I will be presenting my 2 day “Script Breakdown & Film Scheduling Workshop” on November 22 & 23, 2008.
For more information on how to register for this course, contact the Vancouver DGC office at (604) 688-2976. (This 2-day workshop is only available to DGC(BC) members.)
