Summary
Do you know what it takes to be a great producer?
The key to becoming a producer who is attractive to creative collaborators and financiers alike is an understanding of the whole process. An understanding, in short, of the market, the business – and of yourself.
This part-time course is designed to help you find your own producing strengths and how to succeed in the world of filmmaking.
The best producers know how to start the right projects in the right way, with a strong creative sense and commercial purpose. You must have a wide range of skills, from creative and organisational intelligence to financial prowess and marketing insight. The aim of this six-month Certificate course is to develop your skills and judgement across the entire cycle of a feature film’s life, helping you as a new producer to enter the world of professional filmmaking.
Meeting weekly in central London or online (depending on which cohort you choose to join when you apply) in an evening class format, we aim to help participants develop and discover their own producing strengths by teaching technical producing skills and using real case studies.
