The workshop skillfully demystified the intricate process of crafting a film, transforming what might seem overwhelming into manageable steps. These sessions immersed me in both the theoretical and practical aspects of each stage. It was a perfect platform to explore diverse roles within the realm of filmmaking, offering an invaluable space for experimentation and growth. It is an enriching journey that introduced me to a vibrant community of creative minds.

It is a true rarity for an educational course to be equally rigorous in theory and in practice while maintaining an encouraging atmosphere. I came to BFC knowing only the rudiments of film-making and am leaving having helped make a short film. The wealth of well-documented resources and practical experience that you get from this course is fantastic, and Samer's instruction is thorough, welcoming and charming - a real gem. For anyone looking at getting involved in film, this bootcamp is for you.

The experience was very fruitful, i was happy to be surrounded by like-minded passionate people, and it gave me a boost of confidence to continue filmmaking.

If you have a passion for film and wanted to learn about filmmaking, whether you've had any experience in this field or not at all, this Bootcamp is one serious step, taught by the highly energetic, very patient and extremely knowledgeable Samer who has been immersed in the field for a long time and knows every detail involved in this world, and the so many technical aspects and levels. I can't view films the same way as before the Bootcamp, it has involuntarily occupied my senses
Nader Jebeily
Participant
I think the overall experience was very helpful in understanding the many steps of filmmaking. It gave me a hands-on feel for the field. It also provided detailed explanations and a look inside the film industry. The bootcamp was very fun, and the group we had was very friendly and delightful. The instructor is very sweet and accommodating.

This bootcamp was not only incredibly fun, but super beneficial. Despite being two weeks, it feels like you learn years of material in a short period of time, better preparing you for production roles. I loved how it was a mix of theoretical and practical, and the general environment that we were working in!

This bootcamp is amazing, especially if you are looking to combine theoretical knowledge with practicality. Since day 1, we have been exposed to the notions of story-telling and directly put under the test of writing a collaborative script to shoot later on. We got introduced to the notion of lightning & sound that goes on during a set and of course, we did exercises revolving it. It is an introduction to filmmaking, we touched mostly upon basic notions of each category & we ended up shooting& editing as well. Coming from a familiar background with storytelling, shooting & editing, I was genuinely mesmerized by the content of the bootcamp. It is an amazing chance to meet fellow filmmaking enthusiasts and make connections. The team that we worked with alongside our instructor was an amazing opportunity. Whether you are looking to learn from scratch, apply your knowledge to the test, meet new people, or just have fun, this bootcamp is for you!

I learned a lot from doing this experience. It made me meet a lot of new people. I learned about the many different fields that film has to offer. I found an interest in directing and cinematography. The teacher was able to teach us all the beginner basics in film during these 8 days.

Participant
Really good experience for anyone aspiring to be in the film industry. The bootcamp taught me alot in only a few days. The people there and the organizers were all nice
Raya Nasser
Participant
This bootcamp is very intensive, but very hands on, as everyone gets the opportunity to actually work with the material taught when it comes to filmmaking, instead of just sticking to a theoretical aspect; the final project is to shoot a short film from scratch, and this way we get to learn from our mistakes in the best way possible. This really helped give all of us a much better understanding of what it's like to work in this industry, especially in Lebanon.

Nai Leil

I had such a great time being part of the BFC filmmaking bootcamp, I learnt so much about everything, from sound to audio to production and many more. It was a wonderful experience getting to work with other aspiring filmmakers that each have a different perspective over everything which makes the work more beautiful than it already is.
Sasha Jneinati
Participant
I highly recommend this bootcamp no matter your level because being surrounded by passionate driven people who share your interests is motivation enough and this bootcamp allowed me to learn so much about every aspect of filmmaking from cameras to sound to light to editing to scriptwriting and you get to apply what you learn to practical practices and that’s what makes it worth it in my opinion.

These establishments serve as hubs for education and skill development, offering comprehensive assistance across all phases of production. Additionally, they host screenings and discourse on independent local films and their creators, serving as valuable repositories of knowledge and networking opportunities. Beyond their contributions to the filmmaking community, these collectives also contribute to the dissemination of cultural understanding and expertise.
While Lebanon boasts several foundations and initiatives centered around filmmaking, it has yet to establish an entity that embodies the concept of a true film cooperative. Seeking to address this gap, the Beirut Film Center emerges as an endeavor aimed at fulfilling this need in the Lebanese film landscape.[/vc_column_text][spacing desktop_height=”10″ mobile_height=”5″ smobile_height=”5″][buttons text=”Find Out More” link_url=”https://beirutfilmcenter.org/about-us/” new_tab=”no”][contentbox margin=”10% 20%” mobile_margin=”8%”][/contentbox][/vc_column][/vc_row]
