Special Reno Film Festival Admission
$75.00

Q: What Will I Learn at the 1-Day $99.00 Film School for the Reno Film Festival’s Admission of $75.00?

A: Simply put – everything you’ll need to know to make and market your feature film. Period. No film theory or conceptual criticism here, kids. Just the rock solid facts and insights that you will require in order to effectively (and cost consciously) get it done. Period.

No matter what your budget - I will show you how to get it all on the screen.

The 1-Day $75 (regularly $99) Film School is presented in three segments (told in a light, fun, engaging manner). To the right is a small sample of the subjects to be covered:

Part 1 - "Creative Elements"

  • Coming up with a clever, commercial idea
  • The script – length, 3-act structure, etc.
  • What does the audience want? And how to give it to them
  • What do distributors want? What elements are important?
  • The genres that are always in demand
  • How to direct/handle actors
  • What a screenwriter goes through

Part 2 - "Technical Requirements"

  • Crew positions
  • Hiring the right crew – and at the right price
  • Getting your film equipment - for little or no money
  • How you don't have to know a thing about technology

Part 3 - "Business"

  • Shopping your completed film
  • Dealing with distributors
  • The politics of film festivals
  • The business of casting – you need names to sell the film
  • Producing a high-quality film on a shoestring budget
