“We have now reached the end of the course! I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you so much for choosing this course! Now it's time for you to share your final project. Let's get over the five main steps of the process: 1. Prepare for the project by choosing a script, or use the one we’ve provided from our short film ‘In Silence’. Get a grasp of your vision for the project by sharing references with everyone involved and get in tune with your vision for the project. 2. Decide upon what equipment, location, and other tools you will use during the project and, more importantly, motivate you to use a specific tool.

Begin the process of color grading what you’ve shot and experimented with how you can emphasize the story and feel of the film. 5.

Be happy with your finished project and what you have learned on the way.
