Ved bedømmelsen af prøvepræstationen vil der blive lagt vægt på i hvor høj grad den studerende:
Working in small groups, participants in this hands-on production course will develop a screenplay, shooting script and storyboard for a 4-7 minute short fiction film, carry out such other pre-production tasks as casting and location scouting, and then shoot and edit their films. In the process, they will gain experience with identifying and resolving storytelling problems and with the organization and execution of complex tasks while working as a team under the pressure of tight deadlines.
No previous experience with production equipment is required

Lektor, Richard Raskin
Participants in this intensive, monthlong course will work in five-person production teams. There will be plenary sessions, mainly at the start of the course, while most subsequent meetings during script development and production will involve individual production teams, in keeping with a primary focus on group projects. Basic instruction will be given in the use of semi-professional cameras and the Final Cut Pro editing program during the first week of the course.
The main conceptual framework for this course will be a non-formulaic model based on the view that short film storytelling can best be described in terms of opposing properties that balance and complete one another in a dynamic interplay. An approach of this kind is not only more open than the standard sequential and actant models, but also better suited to catching the most common beginner mistakes when short films are produced by student filmmakers. However other narrative and dramaturgical models will also be considered and students wishing to draw on them as well will of course be welcome to do so.
While participants will be encouraged to pursue their own creative vision, they will also be expected to learn and master narrative conventions and to take seriously (though not automatically comply with) the suggestions offered during feedback sessions throughout the production process. Participants will also be encouraged to draw on whatever experience they have acquired in earlier course work with narratives or dramaturgy of various kinds, and to make full use of other talents and skills they may happen to have - for example in composing music, writing convincing dialogue, drawing a storyboard, working with picture composition, managing camera settings and lighting, designing sets, or performing as actors.
NB: Because of the intensive nature of this hands-on production course, participants should be aware that they will have classes, group meetings, technical instruction, shoots or editing on virtually every day in August, including some of the weekends. It would therefore be impossible to take other courses in August in addition to this one.
A selection of essays by R. Raskin, including "Story design in the short fiction film" (2008); "On pacing in the short fiction film" (2006); and "The Art of the Short Fiction Film: Guidelines for Student Filmmakers" (2002). These texts will be provided either as handouts or in electronic form at the start of the course.
