Director Austin Saya will teach a workshop centered around the idea that all shots in professional commercials, music videos, films etc are specifically designed with purpose and intent to convey narrative, feeling, mood and character.

Each attendee will get a crash course in how Austin treats shot design within his own work leaving with having dissected a given scene for themselves using a provided shot design worksheet. As a group we will learn how to break down these scenes so that when we go to direct our own projects we can not only be better prepared but create dynamic shot lists that further push our own ideas.
