October 19 at 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Presented by The Headlands Foundation
For the first time in New Hampshire Film Festival history, you’re invited to take a look inside the stunt industry. Join professional stunt coordinator, stunt performer and feature film producer Amy Greene as she leads a demonstration, discussion and Q&A about stunts, action design and safe sets.
Hear about planning and executing a car chase, choreographing a fight, finding the light and camera angles, pre-visualization and more. Also hear about behind-the-scenes experiences, what it’s like to work in the stunt community, and where to find and connect with stunt performers for productions.
Whether you’re a filmmaker looking to incorporate stunts into your work, someone interested in the stunt field, or someone who simply loves action movies (who doesn’t?!), then you don’t want to miss this special opportunity.
