Calendar – Past Event

Doug Pray and Peter J. Vogt, in association with TheFilmSchool, are proud to introduce their second annual Wild Mind Film Camp, an 11-day intensive master class for documentary filmmaking in the Washington Cascades. The Camp runs from July 17-28.

Wild Mind Film Camp is a hands-on, in-depth learning experience for ten developing professionals and inspired nonfiction filmmakers who want to dramatically improve their documentary skills and knowledge. Each day features a mix of classes, workshops and live production in a supportive community atmosphere. Amidst the astonishing beauty and fascinating culture of the Methow River Valley, this is a rare and excellent opportunity to work one-on-one with real pros, real equipment and real subjects.

Please note that Wild Mind Film Camp is not designed as a purely technical workshop, nor is it a film-industry career seminar; it's about storytelling in documentary films and developing the artistry, sensitivity and skills to do it well.

Applicants must have moderate filmmaking experience, including a general, working knowledge of digital video cameras, sound recording and non-linear editing software. (We will teach with, and use, these tools, but this is not an introductory course for beginners.)
