Level Up↑ Academy #2
#2 FILM DIRECTING AND CAMERA WITH PROFFESIONAL ACTORS
Date: 1st – 2nd November
Duration: 2 days session from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm incl. One hour lunch break.
Number of participants: 16-20
Lectures: Viktoria Rampal Dzurenko, Ranjan Rampal
Step into the world of filmmaking and experience what it means to lead a crew and guide professional actors in front of the camera.
In this intensive workshop, you’ll create two dynamic short scenes:
- In a professional film studio, you’ll direct actors while shaping the entire atmosphere through lighting and set design.
- On location in Prague – whether in a lively park or the iconic metro – you’ll capture the raw energy of real-world storytelling.
This is your chance to develop real directing skills, build confidence on set, and bring your creative vision to life.
Students are divided into two groups, each with two professional actors:
- Day One: One group films dramatic scenes inside the film studio (including directing, lighting, and set design), while the other group shoots on location in Prague – in a park or even in the metro.
- Day Two: The groups swap locations, so everyone gets the chance to experience both the studio and exterior shooting.
Each group receives a directing assignment from the teacher and must bring the scene to life on camera.
In the afternoons, the focus shifts to editing and postproduction, where students learn how to shape raw footage into a finished piece.
Every day ends with a screening of the scenes and a group discussion, so you can see your work on the big screen and get direct feedback.
