Het programma voor zomer 2024 komt in april 2024 online.
Let op: deze cursus wordt in het Engels gegeven.
“My job is to turn psychology into behaviour”, said Elia Kazan when he was inquired about his role as a film director. Regardless of whether it is Documentary, Experimental or Narrative, film has the ability to portray the psychological depth of a person by capturing their actions and reactions. Throughout the history of film, this powerful tool has been used to portray on screen the inner qualities of both relevant and anonymous figures.
In this course you will learn how to film the personality and psychology of a person seen through your own eyes. You will focus on observing and recording the subject’s actions, reactions and interactions with others and their environment. You will learn shooting techniques and also different tips to make your subjects be themselves and shine on camera. During this course you will record images and sounds of your subject and then edit them into a 3-to-5-minute piece. You are free to choose any subject you want for your film.
There are also no genre or style limitations, and this course can be used for multiple purposes. Is there someone that captivates you, but you dont know how to translate that unique charm into a film? Do you have a significant other that you would like to make a film about? Maybe you are an artist, a maker or someone that wants to learn how to visually present yourself? Any subject is valid, even yourself! (Yes, self-portraits are also a great option).
Film Portrait
Film Portrait
This is not an intro class to Filmmaking. No previous experience is required, but you need to know how to use a video camera because we wont have time to cover basic camera operations.
You will have to film your chosen subject twice during this week, so they would have to be reasonably available during this time and have already agreed to be filmed before the course starts. This means it is best to have an idea of who you’d want to center – your subject – in your film portrait before the start of the course. It is possible to join the course without a subject but then you will be put to work on someone else’s project.
For the duration of the course, you can use CREA’s film equipment. We film with digital cameras and you edit with free editing software on your own laptop. If you do not have a laptop you can use, please contact us via planning@crea.nl to see if you can use one of the PCs here.
Please keep in mind: when using the CREA cameras outside of class-hours you will need to bring your own SDHC card. During the first class you will receive a thorough explanation regarding the loaning of cameras.
