In this master class, Townsend talks about how he made his first feature film, Hollywood Shuffle, on a credit card and his transition from being just an actor to becoming a Hollywood hyphen. Townsend’s story is now part of Hollywood legend. In this class, he will take the students through the steps he took to make this film, that is now considered an American Classic, a reality.
Townsend will guide the students through his creative process as he breaks down giving birth to an idea from the pitching stage, taking them through the various stages of pre-production, filming, and post-production including writing the screenplay, preparation to direct, and finally the skill sets needed to be a solid producer.
Also, in this master class, he will also show film and television clips as well as sharing his shot lists, storyboards, and production bibles.
This is a class you don’t want to miss. It will leave you truly inspired.
