OCCC's Set Construction Intensive
In Partnership with Prairie Surf Media.
The Set Construction Intensive course is designed for students who have moderate tool/shop experience to learn the terminology, best practices, and skills to transition into the Construction Department on Motion Picture Productions as Set Carpenters. Students will learn flat, subfloor, ceiling, door, window, and step construction/installation. All these step will culminate with a completed industry standard film set. Highly Recommend purchasing your own carpenters tool belt. All other tools and materials will be supplied in the course.
