Grand Rapids Community College Offers Film Training
Michigan is one of the few states courting the film industry with
rebates and tax incentives. This should bring more film makers
to Michigan in 2009. In anticipation of the films and film crews
that will be needed to bring these projects to completion,
Grand Rapids Community College is offering 4 different courses
in training for film production.
- Basic Film Set Training
- Film Camera Loader Workshop
- Introduction to Technical Labor: Electrical
- Introduction to Technical Labor: The Film Grip
These classes run from $125 to $1750 for tuition fees and some
require some technical knowledge and expertise.
TicTock Studios in Holland MI is co-sponsoring the Basic Film Set
Training to supply needed expertise to film makers here. These
programs are state approved and might qualify for No Worker Left
Behind funding to participate in the film training program.
Henry Ford Community College is also offering classes.
The classes at GRCC start in March, so check out the links and
you could be working on a movie set this year!
