Micro Budgeting

Following on from the UK Film Council’s new research report (June 2007) on Low and Micro- Budget film production in the UK, Emily Corcoran will be with us to give her perspective as a film maker.

Micro budget filmmakers break rather than follow the rules of conventional production. They are using new digital tools that are steadily and constantly evolving. At the same time they are testing the limits of the technology, they are also experimenting with style and form and storytelling within the constraints of a low budget. During this session Emily will explore the process involved in creating a micro budget film and sources of finance available.

Emily Corcoran is from Cork Films and has recently released her award-winning feature film Sisterhood. For more information on Emily go to www.sisterhoodfilm.com

VFX and Titling Workshop

This hands-on workshop is designed for independent filmmakers and editors who want to create interesting and engaging titles, credits and idents for their projects without the expense of hiring a graphic artist

The taster session will cover the use of Final Cut Pro (FCP) and Apples Motion as well as touching on basic 3D animation and visual effects to pull these sequences into high impact pieces.

Knowledge of FCP or similar editing software is required.

Social Networking for Filmmakers

This discussion explains how to begin using social media and social/professional networks to find an audience for your work, and how to use the web as a primary method of promoting and marketing film content to exhibitors.

The pressure of competition for our time means that filmmakers are obliged to put as much of the available budget on screen as possible. Little is left to woo exhibitors and audiences. The new worldwide web is now the more direct, immediate and cost-effective marketing and publicity channels. Using it requires a more direct and upfront approach; cut through the noise, attract attention to yourself and your content, and engage with your audience.
