This intensive, week-long summer school is designed for directors who want to deepen their craft, sharpen their leadership skills and learn how to turn preparation into powerful, confident filmmaking. Created and led by BAFTA-winning film and television director Tim Fywell, Prep and Shoot is a hands-on, practical workshop that mirrors the real working process of professional directors.

Across six days, participants will move step-by-step through the director’s process from script analysis and creative preparation to rehearsals, shooting strategy and working with actors on set.
