SEE, THINK and MAKE LIKE a FILMMAKER with Fanxi Sun


Thursday, May 30 and Thursday, June 6 | 6 PM - 8:30 PM | *choose: $20| $50 | $80

Grab your smartphone and start shooting like a filmmaker with 2024 Teaching Fellow Fanxi Sun! Learn how to compose, move, and sequence shots to visually deliver information and make a compelling short film. We will cover the most fundamental concepts and theories related to cinematography and editing, as well as a walk-through of the free editing software Davinci Resolve. Both lectures will be paired with in-class workshops where participants practice learned skills in shooting and editing. Registration is encouraged.

Location: Main Campus. Look for the Craigardan Event sign at the end of the Main Campus driveway (two “doors” west of the farm store, towards Keene). Google Maps Link

*PROGRAM FEE STRUCTURE

While many of our programs are free (with thanks to your support - see above), we also offer classes and events with a fee. There are three prices to choose from on a sliding scale: 

subsidized $20 | regular fee $50 | help others $80

Upon registration, we trust you to choose the right fee that matches what you can afford. Do you need financial assistance? Can you pay the regular rate? Do you have the ability to pay a bit more and make funds available for others?
