1. Safety
One must never eat around the camera or Saul Goodman's film crew will Good Will Hunt-one-down; basic safety measures must be taken to keep the film equipment in pristine condition, or one will face Marshall's wrath.
2. Set Life
Best boy? Dead cat? Going 10-2? Learn the on-set lingo, rookie, or you can hike it out of Hollywood. Saul Goodman's film crew will run through basic film shoot etiquette and best practices so that you don't embarrass yourself on set.
3. Visual Storytelling
The Dutch Angle. The French Over. The Swingle. You think you know all the ways to frame up your shot? Just hold your horses, Hitchcock, and pay attention. Saul's film crew covers all the angles, and more.
4. Working With Actors
A collaborative relationship with your actors is very important! There's a big difference between "Dance, meat puppet!" vs. "Could we try a slight alt?" So, try a little nuance and politeness, please.
5. Editing
Editing is everything, Eisenstein. Hard cuts, fade outs and dissolves are great, but a star wipe could really cheapen the picture! And never forget the power of montage. The Saul film crew welcomes Kim Wexler to explain.
6. Movie Magic
To make the impossible possible you need to have the right tricks and tools. We're talkin' body doubles and special effects. Green screens and Foley sound. This stuff is not for the novice! Saul's film crew unravels the mysteries of movie magic.
