Whether you have worked in this industry or have been putting the holes in factory made doughnuts for ten years? Pie ‘n’ Mash Films “NO BULLSHIT FILMMAKING” courses offer you the chance of a life changing experience.
No Bullshit Filmmaking Borstals present a polished Dogma method of gorilla filmmaking by maverick award winning Director Bill Maloney. Topics covered include:
| • Production • Concept • Scriptwriting • Casting • Contracts • Directing • Acting • Camera • Sound • Logging • Basic Editing • Marketing • Distribution • Sales |
Sounds a lot but you CAN do it. It is the intention of Pie 'n' Mash Films that all students (whether curious or serious) finish the course with a mixture of basic and progressive knowledge of filmmaking, that they may develop their own unique style.
All students will have the opportunity to speak one on one with Film Producer, Director, Cameraperson, Actors, Directors PA, Distributor, Writer, Editor and Marketing Specialist.
Don't expect 'luvies' around Pie 'n' Mash Films, our studio, methods, approach and tutors are gritty and raw. (Strong language is part of our expressive culture). Don't be daunted by your dream; we're real people just like you and want to share the realistic and achievable filmmaking knowledge that we have acquired over the last twelve years.
Once your booking is received and confirmed each student will be given DVD copies of Lunatic, The Blunderers, and Billy and Lilly go to New York. (Three feature films produced by Pie 'n' Mash Films) This is to provide you with a flavour of our work and style. All students will be required to study the history of Pie 'n' Mash Films via our website. (The first question Bill will ask on the course is what do you 'know' and 'think' Pie 'n' Mash Films is all about?)
At the end of the course students will be given a certificate of attendance to mark their achievement.
There will be a maximum of fourteen students on each course. By keeping the numbers down there is more leeway for one to one tuition.
