Film Producing 101: Creativity Meets Logistics [Information session with filmmakers]

​We're launching a film production course called Film Producing 101. This session provides you details about the upcoming (free) course, which explores the essential intersection of creativity and logistics.

​Join us for a candid conversation with two filmmakers (course faculty):

​Sean Patrick Burke is a Sundance Award-winning film and television producer with over 15 years of professional experience.

​Syed K. Jamal is a filmmaker, social entrepreneur, and board member of Tasveer.org, the only Oscar-qualifying South Asian film festival in the world.

​Film Producing 101 will cover topics such as:

​• Finding your idea

​• Writing a script

​ • Importance of genre

​• Set etiquette & structure

​• Look books/pitch decks

​• Finance plans

​• Schedules & budgets

​• Pre-production

​• Principal photography

​• Post-production

​• Sales, distribution, and festivals

​And more!

​The information session provides detailed insights into these topics, the methodology, and key timelines. It’s also a fantastic opportunity to learn about the film industry and explore various career pathways in film and the creative economy.

​This initiative is part of a nonprofit project, Grit City Studio, which aims to boost Tacoma’s creative economy by establishing it as a film hub for economic development and cultural enrichment.

​We look forward to seeing you on April 30th.

​Note: We’ll host another information session on Friday, May 2nd, from 4 PM to 6 PM at the same venue. If that day works better for you, please email Syed at syed@gobranta.com.

​The event is free to attend, but pre-registration is required as seats are limited.

​Thank you.

​Syed and Sean
