We are going to do a one-off 10-week course

At the request of many, we are going to do this just once. Something totally new and unique in our history. (Well, 25+ years) Are you taking a gap year? Do you want to enroll in film school, the HKU, or St Joost? And do you want to know how that works? Or do you just want to learn how to make films (read: films, not commercials or corporate BS)? But how do you start? What are you getting yourself into, and will you even enjoy it? Discover it with us. We are an international production agency for documentaries and, more recently, feature films. Sometimes wildlife, sometimes socially driven drama. Headstrong, driven, and passionate. (Yes, you read that correctly, specifically headstrong, driven, and passionate) We are offering a one-off training session for you. Not online, but live. Get introduced to the world of film, international actors (yes, really), the basic 'dishes' of film, scriptwriting, directing, and editing, and prepare for your new future. Because we, as a film company, are also busy with our productions, we are applying a registration limit (max. 10 people) and a time limit (registration is open until March 1, 2024). Based on the registrations, we will schedule a number of dates for both theory and practice. Send us your motivation, a bit of background (what you have already done), and what you would like to achieve. Just making a film, telling a story, doing a bit of writing, shooting, editing, and showing it. Really nice.
