The Dreamweaver Collective at JUMP 


The Dreamweaver Collective seeks engage people in our community interested in the different elements of film production. Join us for a series of workshops including screenwriting, filmmaking, production design and postproduction. All workshops are free and open to the public. 


Workshop Descriptions 
 

Screenwriters: 

Collaborate with others to develop scripts that will eventually be produced by Dreamweaver Collective filmmakers. Original screenplays will be developed through the process of editing and revision. In this workshop participants will learn and improve on proper formatting, story structure, and writing skills. Sign up for screenwriters workshops.



 
Filmmakers: 

It takes an entire team to produce a film. This large and diverse workshop explores all the aspects of film production including actors, grips, camera operators, production managers and directors. Sign up for filmmakers workshops.


Production Design: 
 


Learn the ins and outs of production design including props, costumes, set pieces and makeup. Collaborating with the screenwriters and filmmakers, this workshop will construct, fabricate, or create whatever is necessary for the specific scene being filmed.  


 
Postproduction: 

 
Postproduction is the final piece when putting together a film. Participants will have access to Adobe Creative Suite programs and receive coaching to learn basic to advanced level of editing in Premier Pro, After Effects, and Audition. Sign up for postproduction workshop announcements!

Sign up in two-hour blocks using the link below. This workshop is FREE and open to all.

Directors: 

Our directors will oversee the filmmakers group. However, they will need to be put through an interview process and vetted by our JUMP Team. The directors will also be in another position besides director on another team.  

Directors will not be able to direct their own script. We will also have openings for assistant directors who will “apprentice” under the directors to teach them about directing skills.
