Drawing Board to Screen: Production Design and Technical Drawing with David McHenry
Monday 26th July - Friday 6th August 2010 - £650
In film and TV production, the pre-production process is a time for discovery and invention. This is when the Art Department develops ideas and creates the blueprints for the design of the piece. In this advanced 2-week course, David McHenry explores this creative journey with participants helping each one to develop an individual creative design approach. Through analysing a screenplay and focusing on one major set participants will create unique concepts of their own from scratch, producing working drawings, plans, visuals and models.
