Eric Rutherford will lead students with the development of their scripts and video direction, and the great team at Arts+Labor will help with all aspects of production.
This class is being offered at a discounted rate for this first session. Students also have the chance to receive an additional refund for offering post-course feedback to help us refine the course for future students.
VIDEO SKETCH PRODUCTION CLASS
In a collaboration between Austin’s own Arts+Labor (a Creative Content Community) and ColdTowne Theater, this Video Sketch Production class will take the comedy student from pitch to final edit on their own 3-5 minute video short.
Students will work with industry professionals to hone their idea into a script, and then tackle the ins-and-outs of casting, location scouting, directing, post-production and other challenges of producing their own video sketch.
The class will culminate in a screening of the sketches open to friends and family, and each student will receive a copy of their digital short to share or use for their reel.
