From scripting to shooting, editing and post production, no one has more involvement with the success of a film project than the director. This course, designed by award-winning filmmaker Michael Wohl, reveals and explains the process of being a successful director.

To tell a story, you’ve got to know the story. Michael explains how to ask the right questions and break a story down into its various themes and objectives. Then, Michael gives his expert tips in communicating effectively and collaboratively with the actors and crew. He explains how to expertly plan a shoot from the initial “lining a script.” You learn how to design the best camera angles for every shot.
