Directing Workshop: Crafting Comedy

In this workshop, you will find creative and frugal ways to inject comedy into the film process through all phases: pre-production, on set, and post-production. Learn how to craft comedic moments in your script, work with actors to bring humor to life on set, and perfect the timing and rhythm in post-production. Join us to elevate your storytelling with laughter, all while staying within budget.
