Ideation: Bringing Ideas to the Screen (Live Virtual Classroom)
Have you got a winning idea for a TV show or online video but don’t know how to get it off the ground or where to start?
Learn how to transform your ideas into actual production or film projects in this online lecture-workshop designed for creative and production practitioners and aspirants. In this course, you will immerse yourself in the creative process and learn how to think and collaborate to turn your ideas into market- and production-ready proposals. It will also equip you with an overview of global production and distribution ecosystems to help you plan out and navigate your concepts through to production and screening.
The course is immersive and therefore participants are required to bring ideas for programs, videos, films, and other production or content projects for them to work with in the workshops.
Participants should expect coursework that need to be accomplished outside of the sessions and presented in class at the workshops. The workshops are collaborative in nature (brainstorming and critiquing environment) so participants are expected to keep an open mind and maintain a constructive attitude.
At the end of the course, you will learn how to systematically generate ideas and develop them into concrete, workable production concepts and formats.
Important Note: As we are dealing with potentially proprietary creations, we will require all participants to respect (and possibly sign for) non-disclosure.
