  • EXAMPLE FILM I made an exclusive short example film for this class to provide you with on-the-go examples. I'll show you how to develop, write, film, produce, edit, and master the sound and color of your video..

  • YOUR TEACHER My name is Olaf, and I'm a dedicated filmmaker with a passion for teaching future visual storytellers. I have made film classes about making a short film, screenwriting, documentaries, and trailer editing. In this class, I dive even deeper than before into my toolbox of turning an idea into reality..
