SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16 @ Barking Legs Theater
10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Registration fee: $5

In the second week of the our Fall Series, the SRLS offers a special Filmmaking Workshop for anyone interested in learning about the behind-the-scenes filmmaking process. Whether your interests lie in being on screen, or remaining behind the camera, this workshop will allow you to play a significant role in the production of a short film, to be publicly screened shortly after the workshop.

The film created during the workshop will be based upon the themes, narrative structure and other qualities of an animated short by Czech filmmaker Jan Svankmajer. Participants will watch and discuss the short and, with the help of workshop facilitators, create a loose "script" upon which the workshop film will be based. With guidance by the facilitators, some participants will operate filming equipment, while others will serve as the cast.

Editing will take place after the conclusion of the workshop, and the finished product will be screened at the SRLS Local Yokels Film Festival on October 23. In addition to having a public screening of the workshop film, participants will recieve feedback from the Local Yokels audience, in the form of a questionnaire following the screening.
