Seminars & 1-Day Intensives


	LEARN FROM THOSE WHO DO! There are many programs out there that deliver what they proclaim. The SILVER SCREEN GROUP is one of them. Industry-active, award-winning, qualified instructors who teach you about the craft and business of filmmaking. Here's how it all started... With the boom of the indie film in the early 90's, film schools and filmmaking seminars popped up across North America at a rapid rate. You now have your choice of a 2 or 4 year program at reputable Universities where you'll earn a degree in your chosen trade. There's also a numerous selection of 2-6 week workshops that promise you a working knowledge of filmmaking. The glutten of 1-day seminars that vow you'll walk away with a solid understanding of 'How To Make an Indie Film', but are too often taught by guys whoyou can't even find on the IMDB! So what is the answer? Before you commit your time and money, ask yourself a couple of questions: After you've spent your hard earned money, will you have the hands-on training and savy to GET and then KEEP your foothold within the industry? Do your instructors still actively working in the independent film arena? Do they have any credits to back up what they are teaching? Be sure you know these answers before you leap. Take the time to find out which program is right for you! *****
