"Making an Independent Film Workshop" taught by Enid Zentelis at "The Downing Film Center" Saturday April 14, 2007.
Have you ever watched a movie and felt inspired to make your own film one day? If you are interested in film and film making then RUN don't walk to any classes and workshops taught by Master Film Maker Enid Zentelis for the treasure trove of insider film making information that Enid will share with you is priceless.
I sat in on Enid's fascinating 2 hour interactive film making workshop today at the "Downing Film Center" (thank you Brian Burke Family http://www.downingfilmcenter.com), where Enid shared about her film making journey with her film "Evergreen" [http://www.evergreenthemovie.com/castcrew/].
Enid is both writer and director for her film Evergreen which was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. Currently her original screenplay "Grasping the Sparrow's Tail" is being produced by Bridget Johnson Films ("As Good As It Gets" & "Bottle Rocket"). Enid recently directed and produced a short film for former President Bill Clinton and The Clinton Foundation (Radical Media). Also to her credit are music videos for major recording artists: Eric Clapton, 3 Doors Down and Wilco to name a few. Enid received a BA from Hampshire College and a Masters in Film from NYU Graduate Film Program where she was the W.T.C. Johnson full-scholarship recipient. Zentelis is represented by Untied Talent Agency and BenderSpink Management.
Enid's workshop presents how she took her film Evergreen through all of the stages of film production from idea - to screenplay - to funding - filming and screening - combined with key information to empower a first time film maker to be able to take a few shortcuts -specifically what approach to take if your first time film doesn't have a huge production budget and what resources are available to first time film makers that they might not already know about. It was interesting to note that many of the 'students' in this workshop were people who already have a background or career in film and media.
If you want excellence in content, Enid's workshop over-delivered on information for inspiring film makers how to get started immediately making their own films. Thank you very much Enid for presenting such an in-depth workshop on film making.
