Goole Straight 8 Kicked off with a story master-class with screenwriter Paul Arrowsmith this Saturday.
Our group studied the foundations of screenwriting, explored characterisation through role play and acting, analysed some terrific films including The Astronomers Sun and How to Cope with Death and before writing and pitching their own preemie for a short film. Some great short film ideas came out of this masterclass and Paul will be returning on Monday 7th February to help turn some of these into scripts.
We are still looking for young people to join our team of filmmakers, and are holding workshops on Monday evenings, 7-9pm.
This Monday, 31st Jan, Editor Adam Kirk will be joining me as we look at how you tell stories with pictures. We’ll be working with cameras and learning the building blocks of film and the types of shots used, from wide shots to close ups, pans, tilts, zooms etc . I’ll be talking showing examples of how I plan these shots as a storyboard artist, and Adam will be showing how he uses these shots as an editor.
