CFAA Film Forum: 'The Filmmaking Series'

About this event

Month by month, the CFAA will guide attendees in learning the step-by-step process of making a short film. Every month will bring us closer and closer to the actual production of this, and the script has been selected, so come and find out more on every 3rd Tuesday! The best talent in the production industry will be here to inform and aid the CFAA team to help YOU to make a movie!!

CALL TIME: 7pm-9pm

TOPIC: Callbacks & Casting of 'Decline'

Join us for the next installment of our Step-by-Step Filmmaking Series ! Having already selected our script and scouted locations, we are now moving into the critical pre-production phase: translating the vision into a technical plan and building the team to execute it. This month, we dive deep into:

The Shot List: Learn how to break down a script into specific camera angles, lens choices, and movements. We will discuss how to prioritize shots to ensure you get what you need for the edit while staying on schedule.

Crewing Up: A movie is only as strong as its team. We’ll cover how to identify the key roles you need, how to find reliable local crew, and what to look for when "hiring" for independent projects.

**AT THE NEW CFAA LOCATION:

Futures Explored,

2553 R St.,Sacramento CA 95816

COMING UP... We’ll be discussing and offering feedback on the scripts that you voted for last month! Don't miss a single month of this exciting program, and if you want to be a part of the crew, you better show up ready to learn and work! -----------------------------------------------
