Take the weekend filmmaking masterclass whose graduates include Quentin Tarantino, Guy Ritchie, Edgar Wright, Will Smith, Queen Latifah and more.
Orson Welles once said that ‘everything you need to know about filmmaking can be learned in three days’. Producer, director and globe-trotting instructor Dov Simens joins us in London for a no-holds barred, rapid fire weekend perfect for industry personnel seeking to refresh their knowledge or newcomers seeking to break into the industry.
You’ll learn how to write, produce, and direct your first feature in a weekend. From writing treatments to editing lab secrets, understanding credits and grants to distributor deals, Dov will teach you how to make a movie step-by-step and cheque-by-cheque.
Hollywood filmmakers like Quentin Tarantino, Neil Labute, Robert Rodriguez, along with Oscar nominated actors like Will Smith and Queen Latifah, and the screenwriters of X-Men, Mortal Kombat, and Blade Runner are just a few of the graduates who have complete Dov’s 2-Day Film School. In the last decade alone, his students have made films grossing a total of more than $14 billion at the box office.
London participants who have since produced or directed successful features include Jeremy Bolt (Event Horizon, Soldier), Phillippa Braithwaite (Sliding Doors) Paul Brooks (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), Simon Hunter (Lighthouse, Edie), Patricia Murphy (Camden Girls),and Guy Ritchie (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch) and Charles Steel (Last King of Scotland, Marley).
