FILM GYM
The Movie Sandbox
Theory & Practice
Learn the basics. Flex your skills. Know the rules, break the rules.
Producing - You create the jobs. Where would we be without our visionary producers? They find potential in a story and line it up with money and a crew. Locations, production, catering and most important of all? SAFETY!!!
Acting - The performance of the actor. The main reason why folks watch movies. The entire movie can have problems but not the performance. Drama is the core.
Directing - Telling the story of the characters through the performance of the talent is not an easy task. Also, the entire creative aspect of the film entirely depends on the ability to utilize all the heads of departments.
Cinematography - All the technical aspects of a movie is managed by the Director of Photography. Utilizing the camera crew to capture the moment. The Gaffer with the crew of Electricians to light it. The Key Grip and Grips make sure they function by putting everything in it’s place.
Production Design - You need something to shoot unless you plan on shooting empty space. The Production Designer (PD) along with the Art Director, Set Decorator, and Property Master all work together to create the world of the story that‘s being told.
Sound Design - Clean dialogue is as important as getting good camera footage. Sound Mixers and Boom Operators work during production to accomplish this feat but in post, Sound Engineers, Folly Artists and Soundtrack Composers set the tone for a movie.
ALL workshops are designed to match industry standards and norms. Action Studios is based in Spring, Texas. All of our projects are slated to shoot in Texas. Workshops are subject to change, it’s the nature of the industry. 16+. Thank you!
