Join us on Wednesday September 13th from 6-9 PM at NOVAC with Editor Misty Talley

For filmmakers without a post background post-production can be mysterious and daunting. Not understanding it could lead to schedules and budgets ballooning out of control as you're forced to learn about post-production the hard way. Fortunately, if you have enough knowledge of post-production workflows and departments you can avoid these pitfalls and go into post confidently.

  • The workshop will cover:

  • Planning for post-production during prep

  • Creating a post budget and a post schedule

  • Understanding the basic workflow of post-production

  • Knowing the different teams involved in post-production and how they operate

  • Learning how to give notes during post in a way that is productive

  • Gaining a basic knowledge of delivery specifications to complete your film
