Imagine a young
child, eye level with a floor full of miniature toys, concentrating
intently on building a make-believe world. To the child, the toys
are not miniature figures made of plastic or wood. They are real
characters with 
real adventures. The child frames the action, crafting scenes
that unfold in a world of imagination.
Looking through the lens of a camera as actors bring to life
a writer's story, the filmmaker is also peering into a world of
imagination. The director, producer, actors, screenwriter, and
film editor are all essential players in the journey from concept
to finished film. In this remarkable process, thousands of small
details—and often hundreds of people—come together to
create a Hollywood film.
Join us as we explore this creative process, from the screenwriter's
words to the editor's final cut. Write your own dialogue for a
scene or put yourself in a producer's shoes by managing the production
of a film.
Begin by finding out about one of the
first steps in the filmmaking process: "Screenwriting."
