SATURDAY JANUARY 20, 2007 - CONCRETE DREAM PICTURES & THE FILM COMMISSION OF NORTHWEST ALABAMA will host an all day workshop to teach movie making skills. The first workshop - in our series - will focus on lighting for film & video.
Attendees will get hands on, practical experience with the ACTUAL EQUIPMENT used to make videos, films, AND movies. Our instructors Robert Duke and Bill Schweikert have MANY national film credits - WALK THE LINE, 21 GRAMS, and BLACK SNAKE MOAN - just to name a few - and are going to get you the skills you need.
You’ll learn equipment names, proper usage, and on set etiquette. At the end of the workshop you’ll receive an official certificate, a glossary of lighting terms and you’ll be included - if you want - in the production database for movie makers who need crew in the Shoals.
It will be a fun day with actual shooting taking place. Actors will simulate a movie being made and workshop attendees will serve as crew. It’s going to be fun and it’s cheap!
Just 25 dollars per person. It starts at 9am and runs until 4pm on Saturday January 20, 2007 at the new Shoals Chamber of Commerce. (FILM OFFICE - 20 Hightower Place, Florence, Alabama 35630). Registration is open to anyone 16 years old and older.
