Learn to make your own (documentary) film or develop a film plan

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 73.3 $ /h

Anyone can make a movie, but where do you start?
In these lessons I guide you in how you can translate the story you want to tell into images and sound. Depending on your needs, I can guide you in the development of a film plan, setting up your own shooting days, interviews and editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, iMovie or Windows Movie Maker. You learn filmmaking mainly by doing, so experimenting is very important. It is up to you what kind of film you want to make, I guide you in your needs and capabilities. Whether you want to make an observational film, a film in which you are also present, with or without an interview. I am curious about your story!

Extra information

In these lessons you use what you have at your disposal. Whether this is a telephone or a (video) camera. You will also need an editing program such as Adobe Premiere, iMovie (Mac) or Windows Movie Maker.

I am originally from Flanders, Hasselt, and lived in Liège for a few years, now I live in Tongeren, a 20-minute drive from Liège.

I offer you individual help in Dutch.

Because every student is different, these courses are aimed at helping you learn Dutch in a way that you enjoy. To progress in the best way and to work effectively. This is to acquire and adapt an individual working method.

Support in the areas of hiring:

- Writing and presentation of a hard-hitting CV both in form and content (how to arouse the interest of the reader and how to be invited to a job interview).
-Writing of a motivation letter (response to a job offer or spontaneous application).
- Preparation and repetition of a job interview (key questions ... to say and not to say)
- Techniques to optimize verbal and non-verbal communication

Together we identify the relevant elements that guarantee you a CV that attracts attention and guarantees that you will be invited to a job interview.

During the rehearsal of a job interview, we prepare the answers to give, the aspects not to say. I work on both the verbal and the nonverbal aspects. If desired, a video can be recorded and analyzed together.

Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract:
- After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background
- stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary.
- Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020)

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne.

But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later).
In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours.

I am a qualified and experienced native Spanish teacher. I teach for several years to english students and I have been teaching spanish in Germany for 1 year.

I have studied Philologie in the University in Spain

I trained as a Spanish Teacher for Foreigners in Germany.

I can speak English and German fluently, so there will be no difficulty in the teacher-student relationship.

You can get good results with me, both if you want to learn or to improve your Spanish, whatever your goal:

• To obtain a DELE diploma from any level.
• To improve your Erasmus experience.
• To improve your experience as a tourist.
• If you want to practice your Spanish regularly to maintain your current level

I teach for all levels, grammar or conversation with personalized methodology to the age, mother language and previous studies of the student.

I take as a point of reference the level and the goal that the student wants to achieve in order to apply one or another method.

In case of group lessons, the price can be different.

This course introduces students to the fundamental principles of screenwriting for film. Through lectures, readings, and writing exercises, students will learn core storytelling concepts including three-act structure, character development, conflict, visual storytelling, and dialogue. Emphasis is placed on crafting short scripts and learning how to communicate ideas cinematically through action and imagery. By the end of the course, students will have completed a polished short screenplay and gained a solid foundation in the creative and structural tools used by screenwriters.

With a Master's degree from TAI School, and having taught two courses there since 2024, I now offer one-on-one tutoring to help you improve your writing and let your ideas take flight. And all in English. As an American with real-world Hollywood production experience (on films like The Neon Demon and the Oscar-winning Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri), I bring not only a solid foundation in narrative and storytelling, but also practical insight into how your writing influences production, performance, and even financing.

Having lived in Spain for almost a decade has given me a global perspective on film and a deep understanding of international and cultural narrative paradigms. With three short films screened at international festivals (and a fourth premiering this year), I can confidently guide you toward stronger, clearer, and producible writing that stands out and, hopefully, comes to fruition. Not confident in your English? No problem! With extensive experience teaching the language, I'll also help you with translation (from Spanish, of course) so your writing style becomes more fluid and natural.

Do you have an interview coming up and worry that your experience won’t come across clearly in English?

If you want structured, practical support to communicate your strengths confidently—without sounding rehearsed or getting stuck under pressure—this class is for you.

This class is designed for professionals preparing for job interviews in English who want clear, structured support—not generic advice or casual conversation practice.

Sessions focus on helping you organize your experience, highlight your strengths, and communicate your ideas clearly and confidently in interview situations. We work on how you structure answers, respond to common and role-specific questions, and speak naturally under pressure.

Each session is tailored to your role, industry, and interview goals. This class is best suited for motivated learners with a clear objective or upcoming interview who are ready to prepare seriously and apply feedback between sessions.

By the end of this course, you can expect to:

✔️ Explain your experience and background clearly and confidently
✔️ Answer common interview questions without freezing or rambling
✔️ Communicate your strengths in a clear, professional way
✔️ Structure your answers so interviewers can easily follow your thinking
✔️ Feel more prepared and less anxious going into interviews
