The MICROSHORT Lab
An intensive for future and early career narrative filmmakers
The Microshort Lab is a chance for directors, writers, actors and cinematographers to get together and practice shooting a short scripted film. Each lab is supported with gear, a location, and supplemental crew (if needed) by the Open Gate team. Time in front of or behind the camera is rare for film artists, but it shouldn’t be. The Microshort Lab aims to be a place to hone your skills in a low pressure environment. Actors can work on delivery, blocking, timing, and scene work with a real crew. Writers and directors can work on the language of film. Cinematographers can test lenses, cameras, movement, and more. All in an afternoon.
THE MICROSHORT LAB IS OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS.
