Main Workshop - January 2023
The 'Storytelling by the Sea' course is tailored for anyone interested in making documentary films, and telling stories through this craft. Some people attend the workshops with media experience, but for many students, this is the first experience with documentary film.
By the end of the week-long course in January all students will have made a short documentary film which will be screened here at The Electric Palace cinema.
A maximum of 8 students are included per course.
For the full course in January the team is offering a discounted price of £680 for residents of Hastings & St Leonards and £800 for those outside of the area.
