Payment plans available - contact edu@stage32.com 

Being a great director is all about having a cohesive vision and clear communication to execute it. This doesn't just happen on set but from development through post-production. Whether you're directing a big-budget blockbuster, an episode of TV, or your first micro-budget independent feature, you can't go into it blind.

In four sessions, accomplished director Heath Cullens will show you how to be an effective director through preparation, strategy, discipline, and overall understanding of your responsibilities and how best to perform them while also being creatively fulfilled. You will develop your own visual style and point of view, have an understanding of your overall role as director, go through everything involved in pre-production, know how to communicate with your cast and crew, determine when you've "got the shot," and have the knowledge needed to work with your editor and receive notes from producers and investors.

Heath has a wealth of knowledge earned from working on acclaimed series, including IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA, YOU'RE THE WORST, AP BIO, and GREAT MINDS WITH DAN HARMON. And Heath is sharing the methods he's built over his years of experience with you. You will leave this class with the confidence, skills, and techniques it takes to be a great director. The information doesn't stop with each session, either. You will continue to have exclusive access to these sessions and your mentor, Heath, by email and video conferencing.

Plus! Heath will provide you with a series of exclusive and helpful handouts to take with you and use when directing your next project. Downloads include:

• Camera Level & Shot Size
• Shot lists
• Ground plans – hand drawings
• Pre-production guide
• Mood board
• Camera Bible & Camera techniques

Throughout the course of this exclusive online class, you will have direct access to Heath as a mentor by email and via video conferencing.

Praise for Heath's Previous Stage 32 Directing Class

"Sometimes one signs up for a class not really knowing what to expect. This class I could never have anticipated! Heath went above and beyond any expectations I might have harbored. This was one of the best classes I have ever taken on Stage 32 or any other platform. I walked away with so much information, confidence and respect for the role of the director. My heartfelt thanks to Heath"
