Film and TV Skills Boost: Filming Indoors

Are you a budding camera operator, videographer, or self-shooting filmmaker? Join our hands-on workshop designed for those advancing towards a professional career in film and TV production. 

This session offers a unique opportunity to practise your skills, ask questions, work through challenges, and master advanced techniques in camera operation, lighting, and sound, with a special focus on filming in indoor locations (interior setups).
