MAKING A MOVIE
Okay, you’ve got a script and you want to make it into a
movie. How long will that take? What days will the lead
actress have to work? How many days will you have to be in
that apartment building and what permissions will you need?
What props will you have to have? What will all those
extras wear where will you get the costumes? Does the
makeup person have to be there every day?
Award-winning film professional SIDNEY BRAMMER will answer
these questions and more in her upcoming all day workshop,
BREAKING DOWN A SCRIPT.
If you’re serious about making a movie, she’ll give you the
start you need—the practical, critical information that you
can’t get from books.
The workshop is produced by Upstart and will be held July
8. To reserve your spot, send $60 to Upstart, PO Box 365,
Bastrop, Tx. The July 8 workshop will run from 10 am to 4
pm and will meet at the Bastrop Chamber of Commerce, 927
Main Street, Bastrop.
