Today’s independent Filmmaker wears many hats, Producer, Director, Crafty and often, VFX Artist. More and more the difference between a successful “Hero” shot is how well the filmmaker plans VFX in pre-production, and how successful he/she is at asking the right questions in an effort to getting quality “Hero” shots for their short or feature.
The Greater Cleveland Urban Film Festival in cooperation with MadWerkz is hosting a VFX for Indie Filmmakers Seminar @GCUFF on Tuesday Sept. 25th at 5:30pm at Shaker Cinemas. The workshop centers around the Do's and Don'ts, along with Tips and Tricks for the Indie Filmmaker in preparing a production to include VFX. Attendance is FREE with your GCUFF Festival Pass or Movie Ticket. Do you have a VFX question?
