Directing with Frederick Bailey
Directing 101 is a required course for any film student, no matter what your ultimate goal is. A movie director’s responsibility is to take the words in a script and turn them into compelling images on the screen. The writer provides the skeleton, but it’s the director who puts flesh on the bones and brings the story to vivid emotional life. You’re the one who guides the actors and crew into the realization of your creative
vision.
Hosted by Frederick Bailey (Mentor, International Academy of Film and Television), The Filmmaker Series: Directing offers you the key fundamentals of directing--from an intimate understanding of The Line and precision shot coverage, through illuminating the theme of the story, to working closely with the actors and crew. Bailey touches on the careers and working methods of some of the great directors in the industry, such as Akira Kurosawa, Wim Wenders, Alfred Hitchcock, and Sergei Eisenstein.
