SUMMARY:Get Into Filmmaking webinar
DESCRIPTION:Our partners at Into Film are offering Youth Workers a free online filmmaking workshop\, to develop core skills to share with and inspire young people.  Whether you’re completely new to filmmaking or have dabbled a bit in the past\, they’ll start right at the beginning of the process and introduce you to their Five-Step Filmmaking framework\, which you can use to break the filmmaking process down into simple\, manageable steps. As the UK’s leading charity for film in education\, Into Film will also teach you how to start making films with simple\, brief-based filmmaking tasks and get to grips with basic filmmaking techniques through hands-on activities.    \n\n\n\nThis session is for those who work with 5–18-year-olds.
