Have you always loved sci-fi cinema? Are you ready to  boldly go  and make a sci-fi film this October? Book for our Sci-Fi Film Weekend and spend the weekend making a sci-fi short at our iconic studio in the heart of London’s West End.

At London Film School, we pride ourselves on teaching and inspiring the next generation of international filmmakers. We also want to inspire and teach complete beginners and film fans. This unique weekend workshop is designed for true science fiction fans. Throughout the weekend you will work with tutor and filmmaker Paul Cotrulia to plan, shoot and edit a sci-fi film. All props, costumes and equipment provided.

You’ll learn how to storyboard, prep, shoot and edit a sci-fi film in Paul’s knowledgeable hands and you’ll be able to see the completed film in our basement screening room. In addition, you’ll hopefully leave with a bunch of insights into what goes into making films in a genre you love, you’ll have lots of practical tips that might help you in any film/content/writing or creative future endeavour, you will have a lot of fun and, you will have a film you’ll be able to share and show family and friends.

"I took a Filmmaking for Beginners course with Paul and learned a huge amount in the space of six hours. Paul's passion for film is obvious and he took us through technical details of shots and set ups, as well as answering our questions about roles in the wider film industry. We had the chance to make and edit a short film under his guidance and I really valued the practical experience. I'd certainly take another class of Paul's."
