In the heart of the summer break, five prospective Notre Dame students embarked on an unforgettable journey as they attended the first annual Filmmaker Summer School offered by the Media department. This summer school, associated with high expectations and potential for success in the film industry, provided a unique opportunity for students to learn and interact in a creative environment.

Over the course of the summer school, the students filmed their original short film 'After the Bell'. They honed their skills in scriptwriting, learning how to write a script in industry standard format, and mastered the art of creating an effective storyboard. In addition, they were introduced to specialist equipment and software, expanding their technical knowledge and capabilities.

The summer school was more than just a learning experience. It served as a platform for students to interact and share common interests, forming friendships that extended beyond the confines of the classroom. One participant expressed joy about their experience during the filmmaking summer school, while another expressed excitement about attending Notre Dame after the summer school.

The summer school experience helped foster friendships among participants, with one participant forming friendships with individuals who share similar interests. These connections not only enriched their educational journey but also added a personal touch to their filmmaking endeavours.

As the summer school comes to a close, there is anticipation for its future. The annual filmmaking summer school is scheduled to continue next week, welcoming new students for lessons. The Media department is optimistic about the potential of this programme, with hopes that it could produce students who could win Oscars in the future.

In conclusion, the Filmmaker Summer School at Notre Dame has proven to be a valuable and enjoyable experience for all who attended. It offers a rare chance for students to immerse themselves in the world of filmmaking, learn from industry professionals, and forge lasting friendships with like-minded individuals. As the programme continues to grow, it is sure to leave a lasting impact on the lives of those who participate and the film industry as a whole.
