This month at Filmmakers Workshop we're gathering film and videomakers who teach mediamaking at the college level for an informal roundtable discussion about issues such as:
how do you balance being a maker and a teacher?
what are the pedagogical/technical challenges of teaching film and video?
how do the different film programs approach teaching differently?
what local resources can we connect students with ?
special tax incentives for students.
Six filmmaker/teachers will start the conversation, representing the film/video programs at BU, Emerson, Fitchburg State, Harvard, MassArt, MIT, and the Museum School.
Admission to this event is limited to 25. Priority will be given to film and videomakers currently teaching media production at the college level. Please rsvp with the name of the institution where you teach, and print out the confirmation email you receive -- you'll need that to be admitted this time.
