Film Classes
All Ages
Film classes are held in small groups or one-on-one, by
appointment.
What’s the #1 reason to study film at Strand?
Our film instructors are warm and friendly, and get to know each student on a personal level. We
keep class sizes limited to ensure each student receives individualized attention, even in a group
setting. All students create a film from start to finish, before completing their studies.
Strand Studios has the number one film
classes in Hackettstown, NJ.
How qualified are your film instructors?
Our film instructors all hold degrees in acting, directing and/or a closely related field. Our instructors
are accomplished actors, directors, and producers.
What will I learn from film classes at Strand?
This 10-week course will take students from never having operated a camera to making their own
3-5 minute short film. Unlike other film courses, they will learn every stage of the film making
process: pre-production, production, and post-production. From writing your own script,
storyboarding, lighting, camera angles, to actual filming. Students will learn how to edit, finalize and
export their film so that it can be shared online or submitted to festivals or contests. The course will
place an emphasis on the practical knowledge necessary to be a successful young filmmaker. No
matter the student's previous experience level, this course will be an excellent way to introduce
them to the magic of film making and begin their portfolio with their very own short film
Concepts Covered:
- Storyboarding
- Using a tripod
- Panning a camera
- Framing a shot
- Selecting an angle
- Proper Lighting
- Handheld Shooting
- Elements of the Zoom lens
- Careers in moviemaking
- Lens Selection
