Book excerpt: "Teaching the Art of Filmmaking" is written by a classroom teacher and intended to give educators a detailed look at building a high functioning film program from scratch with little to no resources. In conversations with colleagues teaching filmmaking around the world, the same questions seem to consistently come up: How do you teach film students to write consistently successful short screenplays? How do you plan for a class film shoot during the busy school day? How do you foster a collaborative and supportive environment with your film students? How do you manage equipment and technology in the classroom? As filmmaking tools become more and more accessible, students become ready to explore this art form at an earlier age. This book is dedicated to teaching the youngest generation of filmmakers.
