Raindance’s practical filmmaking and writing workshops break the daunting cinema-creation process into digestible lectures, as industry professionals lead talks to elevate the aptitude of independent filmmakers and artists. During Raindance founder Elliot Grove’s introductory film school, the prolific producer delves into the essentials of screenplay writing, production, directing, and distribution options. Various lectures and a supportive handbook allow students to glean the knowledge needed to convert the fancy-dancing and slow-punching scenes of youthful cinemaginations into a script filled with plausible characters and plot holes arranged into a looping tunnel that critics will never escape. The action-packed day concludes with a networking session at a local bar where participants can trade business cards to further their cinematic pursuits.
Alternatively, during HBO consultant Steve Kaplan’s two-day comedy intensive workshop, budding punch-line pundits dissect how to achieve humour through jokes, metaphorical relationships, active emotion, and comic premise. By day two, pupils analyze scripts and explore the annotated screenplay for Groundhog Day over and over and over again. Kaplan will also preside over a Q&A session so participants can address lingering concerns or test original knock-knock jokes.
