Subject: [SAMM] Happy New Year


As the subject line says, "Happy New Year." I hope everyone in the
club had a pleasant holicay season.

The Capitol Film Arts Alliance newsletter had an announcement for a
filmmaking class through UC Davis Extension. I went to the extension
site and copied out the course description:
====================================================
Independent Filmmaking: How to Make a Movie Without a Crew

It doesn’t take a Hollywood budget to produce a great movie. Whether
you’re serious about filmmaking or just dabbling, this course
delivers practical, step-by-step guidelines for making a
professional, full-length motion picture. In eight weeks, learn about
all aspects of filmmaking: script development, observing the world as
a cinematographer, location scouting, filming, editing footage and
polishing your finished product. You don’t need professional
equipment to take this course; just bring your mini-DV, camcorder, or
even a cell phone or digital camera that allows video recording.
Apply the direct working methods you learn in this course and create
your own festival- or DVD-worthy film.

Instructor: Mike Carroll is a TV news and documentary cameraperson
with 24 years experience, shooting for KCRA Channel 3 Reports since
1989. He partnered with Bonnie Bennett in 1999 to produce the

finalist in the 2006 Sundance Film Festival; and currently with
