RED workshop for digital natives

Film and Post Production Workshop
Dates: 16 – 24 July 2014
Venue: Cinema Valli – small hall
Leader: Dado Valentić, Mytherapy studio

For the second consecutive year the Pula Film Festival will host RED workshop, a film and post production workshop for children.

RED WORKSHOP
RED Workshop is a creative workshop created in collaboration between the Pula Film Festival and Dado Valentić, founder of Mytherapy, a leading colour grading company in the UK, with support from Red Digital Cinema and Adobe.

The main aim of the workshop is to bring the know-how of the film industry and the latest digital technologies to children and so discover the next stars of digital cinematography. The campers will write and produce their own short films, shoot them on RED EPIC cameras, edit in the REDucation post-production lab, and view their films on the big screen – all on the same level as professional filmmakers!

The camp is organized as a 7-day course which will host Croatian and international participants aged 12 to 16 with English as the main workshop language.

PROGRAMME
The programme is organized as a mix of practical and educational sections with special lectures organized in collaboration with leading film professionals. The camp offers a unique opportunity for the participants to use the most progressive cameras and learn every step of the production and post-production process in the same way that Hollywood professionals do.
Children will have the possibility to shoot their own film with the same 5k RED EPIC cameras that Peter Jackson used on The Hobbit.
Campers will experience the cutting edge of the movie business using the most advanced tools out there to make and screen their work. Participants will experience all the segments of the film and TV industry in front and behind the camera, including:

• Creative writing
• Directing
• Acting
• Cinematography
• Costuming and Make-up
• Editing

The date and the place of the festival premiere of the short films produced by the campers will be announced subsequently.
