Online school workshops
The Arts Unit provides online workshops to assist schools that do not currently have access to local Film By workshops.
Students make, create, and learn new filmmaking skills. Workshops cover a variety of different topic areas, including the use of the camera, sound, and story. Please note that our whole-day workshops cover the topics in greater depth.
Delivered by specialist film teachers, these workshops are tailored to meet the needs of students in filmmaking and extend participants' skills beyond the classroom.
Please note all our programs are inclusive. If support is required to participate please contact our Film By Officer, Karishma Mathur, at karishma.mathur@det.nsw.edu or at filmby@det.nsw.edu.au.
