Doha: The Doha Film Institute (DFI) announced, in partnership with the Ministry of Public Health, it will conduct a youth filmmaking workshop in May.
The topic will focus on health, and classes will run from May 1 to June 4, every Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday.
Led by experienced filmmaker and mentor Corine Shawi, the hands-on initiative offers a comprehensive introduction to the essential tools of filmmaking, stated DFI on its website.
“Through practical and exciting exercises, participants will learn the fundamental techniques required to develop and produce a short film—from basic narrative development to visual storytelling,” it said.
During the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to work individually on their projects and film at various locations throughout Doha. Completed films will also get the chance to be screened at DFI’s acclaimed annual film festival.
