Location Scouting Workshop Deux

News: Beginning January 16th, 2007, Mark McKennon and I will be teaming up to teach a location scouting and location management class at The Learning Annex New York.

Mark and I work together frequently professionally; several years ago we joined forces to teach the first Location Scouting and Location Management Workshop at The Learning Annex. We have been asked once again to teach this informative workshop and we are both very excited!

Below is the description of the the Location Scouting and Location Management Class from The Learning Annex NY Website and the printed catalog. We are told this is going to be a x3 million print run- you shouldnt have a problem finding one around New York City!

HERE is the url for the location scouting and location management classes.

“Ever wonder how people find all those locations for movies, TV, commercials and print ads?!

In this informative class, locations veterans R. Richard Hobbs and Mark D. McKennon share many exciting facts about location scouting and management. Their work takes them all over New York City and the metro/tri-state area on behalf of some major production, photo and corporate clients. It’s a crucial, challenging position and a fabulous way to break into a fast-paced industry.

Learn:

* Duties and responsibilities
* How to work with film commissions and
* local authorities to get location leads, shooting permits, police assistance, etc.
* Creative aspects of scouting; successful location management (in general, but emphasizing the unique environment of New York City)
* Photography tips to shoot your location as you want it seen by the decision makers
* How to negotiate deals
* And more

Plus: How to get a job doing this… And more!

In addition to the specialties of scouting and management, Richard Hobbs and Mark McKennon each own and operate location library/services for film, video and print. Combined, they maintain on-line photo inventories of over 3,000 locations, but they have visited or know of many more, mostly in New York City/State, New Jersey and Connecticut. It’s often not just a job, but an adventure. Come hear how we do it!”
