AU’s Center for Environmental Filmmaking on the Chesapeake Bay!

AU’s Center for Environmental Filmmaking is excited to offer a one-week program on the Chesapeake Bay March 11-17.

Registration is beginning now and is open to AU students as well as the public. The course is limited to 12 people.

This week-long, non-credit class is for both first-time and experienced filmmakers and photographers who have an interest in the environment, natural history, and the outdoors. 

Led by award-winning filmmaker and AU MFA alum Danny Ledonne, students learn how to prepare for and organize a shoot, how to shoot the footage necessary to tell a compelling story, how to edit a polished project, and how to use tapeless HD cameras and supporting sound gear.

The program serves as an enjoyable educational experience for aspiring filmmakers, photographers, and anyone interested in communicating environmental issues through media.

For more information and for a copy of the syllabus, please write to Professor Chris Palmer at palmer@american.edu.
