View the short films from Open Set!

Open Set gives you the unique opportunity to participate in the film making process up close. A specially written script of about 4 minutes in length is interpreted, filmed, post-produced and completed by three directors and three photographers. Each team has approximately half a day for the shoot, and 1 day for post production, editing, sound production and grading. As a member of the audience you get the opportunity to watch a film production from start to finish. A moderator guides you through the shoot, and interviews the film team during the pauses. You can even ask questions yourself. The completed films are shown at the end of the festival week.

In the morning seminar we will screen a series of film clips (from Eric’s work and other filmmakers) as a starting point for discussions about framing, lighting, camera movement and the construction of scenes and sequences.

 

The theme of the afternoon workshop will be DUAL CLOSE-UPS, setting up angle and reverse shots of two people talking, which is one of the most common filmmaking situations. Eric will shoot and discuss variations of dual close-ups to illustrate approaches to staging, lighting, operating and continuity.
