Advanced Digital Film Camp Details

The international reputation for quality education in filmmaking is offered to the more experienced filmmaker through the Advanced Digital Filmmaking Camp. The professional faculty is nationally and internationally known with extensive experience as award winning filmmakers specific in the digital filmmaking medium. Participants must know basic techniques of production, camera operation, and non-linear digital editing. Operating along professional guidelines they are given in class instruction in areas such as direction of actors, digital cinematography and special effects. They are also introduced to the way the camera can enhance a narrative story in association with performances and will develop their editing skills to further augment their story telling abilities. Using some of the facilities of the UCLA Department of Film Television and Digital Media, and state of the art digital film equipment, participants from early morning to the evening hours will have a direct hands-on experience and guidance in synch sound movie story telling.

Our Advanced Digital Film Workshops is a two week experience and provides more intensive training in such areas as digital cinematography, camera direction, story telling, and editing and closely mirrors the college experience in film school. We believe in total emersion in creativity and nurture our participants to be creative while they are at workshop; whether it be in the classroom or in their dorms. The program is headed up by Michael Wohl and Myrl Schreibman two professionals who not only have written books on the subjects but who also bring the quality and expertise for which the UCLA School of Theater Film and Television is internationally known. Other faculty (based upon their availability) will be coming in from time to time to lend their expertise to the campers including Tom Denove who is the leading cinematographer in Los Angeles in digital cinematography. So if you are planning any one of the two sessions of this camp, make sure you come with stories you want to tell and images you would like to see.

Directors and Faculty

David Worth
Program Director

UCLA/TFT faculty member David Worth joins the UCLA Arts Camp/Workshop faculty in our Digital Film Workshops. Majoring in Motion Pictures at UCLA, David gained hands on experience in writing, photographing, directing and editing, while studying every film he could find, from D.W. Griffiths' INTOLERANCE to Stanley Kubricks' 2001. Influenced by the European New Wave, David achieved his reputation as a Director of Photography who can deliver a quality look on a modest budget. This and his love for John Ford westerns led him to working with Clint Eastwood on BRONCO BILLY, and ANY WHICH WAY YOU CAN, which received the Academy of Country Music Award as Picture of the Year and was one of the top grossing films of the decade for Warner Brothers. David has gone on to photograph BLOODSPORT and directed the motion picture KICKBOXER while at the same time doing several episodic television shows with Roy Scheider and Dennis Hopper. He continues to work on projects while teaching at Chapman University and the School of Cinema at USC, and working with our UCLA/TFT undergraduates on their senior films.
