    Directing 101: Making a 5 Shot Film

    https://www.skillshare.com/classes/Directing-101-Making-a-5-Shot-Film/682839170

    This class is a must-watch for anyone who works (or wants to work) in film. Cinema lovers, aspiring filmmakers, actors and video hobbyists will learn how to bring more emotion into video projects and gain a deeper understanding on how great films are made.

    For an immersive learning experience, Julian draws on examples from a short film that he wrote and directed specifically for this Skillshare class entitled "The Moment". We'll have a chance to watch the film, then dive deep into key concepts that are crucial for becoming an accomplished film director. By the end of this class, you will have an understanding of everything a director must do on set to create an emotive short film in just 5 shots.


    Key Concepts include:
    1. Writing Your Scene
    2. Pre-Production Planning
    3. Directing On Set
    4. The Five Shot technique
    5. Directing Actors
    6. Lenses & Visual Style

    Lets try to do what @Leona95 proposed here:
    https://p-v.club/threads/quality-vs-quantity.21865/#post-83152

    Review:
    The course is very good. The guy that is teaching knows about the topic and he is very charismatic too. There is nothing advanced about "directing" there, but the tutorial never promised something like that. The promise is: "I will show you how to complete a short film with only 5 shots (plus "details")", and the tutorial does it. The author shows his own version of the challenge, and the result is excellent.

    Pros:
    Great instructor
    Direct to the point.
    Excellent short film used as example

    Cons:
    I don't think it is a real " cons", but if you, for some crazy reason, want to learn how to use some software, you will not find it here.

    Conclusion: It's an excellent introduction and tells you a lot of things to keep in mind when direct a scene.
