    The Film Director/Producer Lifestyle

    What I love about the Film Makers Lifestyle is the variety. You are always working on different film projects and going to interesting film festivals and locations overseas.Be on the set

    • Getting paid to do what you love.
    • Working with so many different types of people
    • Travel: A Film Maker travels all over the world.
    • Working on passion projects that you love heart and soul
    • Meeting fascinating interesting people all over the world

    The point is that for you to get to this lifestyle, you need to make films now. I believe that short films are only a training ground and you need to get to a feature film as soon as possible. When you can make a really cool 10 – 15 minute short film, then move to low budget feature films that you can make on the weekends and put your heart and soul into it. Then enter film festivals and sell sell sell. I guarantee that this is the quickest way to the above lifestyle. The best film shcool is ‘Get out there and make mistakes and make films NOW.” Thats why you need the two day film school to get you off to an incrediable start. It will be all the nuts and bolts on how to make you journey making films happen now.

    What you will learn on the Weekend Film School?

    The feedback on this Weekend Film School is exceptional.
    We have conducted Film Schools since 1997 and we are the very best at the short Film School courses.

    Hi, My name is Colm O’Murchu. I am the owner of Australian Film Base. I will

    I have taught film making since 1997 so I am very experienced at teaching film. In that time, I have seen so many of my former film students go on to establish film careers. I have seen many of my former students make numerous films and TV programs. One of the greatest buzzes for me, is to hear about the great success of former film students who are now established film makers.

    I have a simple philosophy about teaching film. Learn to make films in the shortest possible time and then produce and direct them. The best film school of all is “Go out and make your film now” . I will show you how to make your film now. I will show you where the markets are for your completed film and how to sell it. That is why I have created the “Weekend Film School”. I believe that you can keep your day job and make your very own films now and in your spare time. And make money. lots of it from your film productions.

    In the last month, I have completed two feature films called THE MAKEOVER and A DAY IN THE LIFE . I wrote, directed and produced THE MAKEOVER over an 18 month period. “The Makeover” is a one hour thirty five minutes feature film and Thats right a full on feature film for the cinemas on next to nothing budget. $35k. If you are aware of Film Budgets, you will know that the film was made for nothing. I have all ready doubled my money in preliminary sales in Australia. I still have the rest of the world to sell and that’s more money from all around the world. The film will screen in late 2010 and in cinemas around Australia. Here is our trailer for THE MAKEOVER.

    Trailer

    As a result of my previous work on The Makeover and as a Film DOP and Editor and Director, I was hired by Dalifey Films to direct A DAY IN THE LIFE, a $1 million dollar film production. We shot on the awesome Red Camera. We shot over six weeks in 2009 and postproduction has just now been completed .

    Why do I tell you all this? Because it is much better for you to learn off an active “Film Maker” than an “Academic” Film Teacher or a “Non Active” retired Film Maker teacher. It is rare to learn of an active Film Maker. But if I am honest with you, I love teaching and I am very passionate about showing you how to make films. If you are a beginner or you all ready have made some films, I will show you how to be a Film Director/Producer. I will help you make your film happen now and without spending vast sums of money on expensive film schools. I will show you all the tricks to save money and make your film on a extreme low budget. I will show your the shortcuts to being a Film Maker NOW. I will only do the Weekend Film School once this year. So Please do not miss out.

    Why do you need the Weekend Film School? This will be two of the best film school days you could have. We will network in the evenings and you will find a working team that can collaborate their talents in making films You can work individually. But a team collaborating is so much more fun.
