2010 Adventure Filmmakers’ Workshop

Take your next adventure film project to a new level. This seven-day workshop focuses on topics essential to every independent filmmaker. The format is lively and interactive with lots of opportunity to apply your new skills to your own projects, with our resource people constantly available to consult and brainstorm with you. And best of all, attendance at the world-renowned Banff Mountain Film Festival is mandatory!

Over the course of the workshop, you’ll benefit from networking opportunities with filmmakers, film festival directors, distributors, and broadcasters. You'll also learn about production processes, low-cost/high quality solutions including editing and post production, as well as how to use structure, script, and narration to create powerful storytelling in your films.

Resource people for this workshop are network and distribution decision-makers and successful independent filmmakers. The sessions are designed for filmmakers, directors, and producers. To get the most from the workshop, an applicant should have enough of a background in film to have thought about and recognize the need for distribution and financing. Participation is limited to 30 people. Scholarships are available — see registration form for details.
