The technical advice was more than I could have hoped for! Michael and Alison demonstrated a huge amount of patience and enthusiasm.
ABOUT US
What we do
Led by a team of experienced professional filmmakers and visual anthropologists, OADF offers a wide range of activities, including workshops, courses and film production services, tailor-made to suit the needs of your students and institution.
Workshops
OADF offers a variety of 5-day to 3-week digital filmmaking workshops for people working in academic and educational institutions. Workshops cover basic technical camera and sound operations, how to shoot for an edit, on-camera interviewing skills, and the business behind producing documentary films. At the completion of each workshop, our students will have gained hands-on experience in professional broadcast quality film production.
Courses
OADF runs evening courses in digital video editing and documentary production that provide comprehensive training in broadcast-quality filmmaking. We work on the premise that, by understanding how films are shot and edited to produce a professional-quality end product, students and researchers who use visual media can become better critics of visual representations. Our courses emphasise both the technical aspects of the production and editing processes as well as the theoretical impetus and ethical implications for employing new technologies for research purposes.
Film production services
OADF offers production services to help organisations and public interest groups define and develop their self-representation to a wider audience. Offering a range of consultancy, film crew, and editing services, we can apply our academic and technical expertise to suit your specific production needs.
