Storytelling With Heart
Touring the U.S. and Canada February 3 – April 8, 2014
What if there was a set of approaches that would turn every film or video you create into a much stronger experience, a deeper story, and a more emotional connection with your audience? That is what Storytelling With Heart is all about, the approaches that we’ve learned make you successful on every shoot:
- Story Structure. What all good stories have in common – finding your conflict and journey.
- Fox, Chicken, Chicken Seed. One of the most valuable filmmaking techniques: creative problem solving.
- Start with Your Why. Getting access, resources and developing your story all start there.
- Balancing Business and Art. Budgeting for projects, building teams and building a sustainable and profitable filmmaking career.
- The Experience Matters. The depth and emotion you get is all about the experience you create.
- Pre-Production. Your key to creating powerful films on time and on budget.
- The Production Pathway. How to stay ahead of the story and be proactive, not reactive.
- Shoot Like a Ninja. Tips & tricks for a new breed of camera tools: the Canon C100, Freefly Movi, Kessler Cineslider, Manfrotto Monopod and more.
