THE BUSINESS OF FILMMAKING

Filmmaking is an art. But if you want to make a living with your art, it pays to learn the business side of the industry. In this seminar of the Heartland Film Institute, documentary producer Johan Bos will reveal the secrets of earning a living at your craft. Bos will discuss the necessary steps in producing a film for its message and instruct you how to research and include the elements that are important to program directors. Although the seminar will focus on making documentaries, Bos’ insights on financing, budgeting, distribution and other practical considerations are applicable to any genre of filmmaking.
