Are you the next Steven Spielberg? Well, now's your chance to find out. At this intensive two-week workshop, you'll write, direct and edit your own short film. You will also work on the crew of several of your classmates' movies.  Maybe even land a starring role.  

Filmmaker Fredrick Johnson, who has helped produce multimedia works for MTV, VH1, Coca-Cola and Universal Studios theme park, will teach you the essentials of how to make a great movie. You'll learn how to operate the Sony PD-150 digital video camera and how to use Final Cut Pro editing software to polish your production. At the end of the week, all of the films made in the class will be shown at a mini-film festival.  Please note: some examples and films used in the class include R-rated material.
