Course summary

The Directing program offers Fellows a thorough understanding of the process of production from script to screen, focusing on narrative, visual language and performance. Fellows learn to collaborate with screenwriters and producers, work with professional actors and incorporate the visions of cinematographers, production designers and editors into all their produced projects.
