1. A constant shift between traditional class teaching, practical exercises and film production.
This offers you theoretical knowledge of film production as well as the chance to actually practice everything you learn in class. In terms of teaching, each course period consist of app. 25 teaching hours per week – and in terms of film production, our students produce more than 100 short films together during the programme.
2. The fact that students cannot pick a specific field of study, but are forced to dive into at least 3 different fields of filmmaking.
On one side, this allows our students to explore their true talent (maybe your talent is actually editing, and not directing?) – and on the other side, knowing more about other fields of filmmaking will make you better at your preferred field.
The editor makes the actual film. It is at the editing stage that the cinematic idea and concept comes to life! Editors are storytellers, using sound, picture, graphic and music to craft the final narrative. The editor’s aim is to create emotion and reach the audience without under- or overburdening them.
Editing classes at EFC are hands-on from the first day. You will learn how to use Avid Media Composer, which is the industry-leading digital editing software.
We will focus on what makes editing work creative. Editing, like all other film crafts, is about choices – the conscious and the subconscious choices. You will also learn how to: organize a project with multiple files and takes, set up bins, create your own settings in Avid, manage media, and deliver your final film.
