Description
Welcome along to the first Indie filmmaking Documentary Masterclass, through this course I am going to show you how to make a documentary feature film and release it as a one person band. Iâ€™m going to show you each step of the production process from pre-production planning and gear, to production shooting and then to post production, deliverables, festivals, distribution and final release. I understand every part of the filmmaking process and I can help you improve your own. From technical, to creative let me provide the road map to making an indie Documentary, outside of the system.
In every chapter Iâ€™m going to provide real world examples and case study guides based on my own independent feature Documentary Glimpses, which I created utilising all of these techniques. Now Iâ€™m giving these to you.
The goal of this course is simple, give you everything you need to know to be able to do what I did and make your own independently produced documentary film. I want you to do it yourself in the most economical way possible, saving as much money as possible, without compromising quality.
The course is long and thereâ€™s a lot to cover but I have broken it all down into short easy to follow chapters.
Feel free to skip to the chapters that are most relevant and helpful to you, or watch it chronologically and learn every step of the process. The only prep that I would advise before starting is to watch my documentary Glimpses so that you understand what Iâ€™m referencing through certain modules of the course.
Who this course is for:
Anyone interested in filming a documentary
