Become certified in DaVinci Resolve in one weekend! In just three days, you’ll complete an editing project from start to finish, using one program. You’ll be trained on the complete editing workflow, including: setting up projects, importing and managing media, editing clips in the timeline, basic color correction, and so much more. At the end of the weekend, you’ll have the opportunity to take a certification exam to become a DaVinci Certified User.
All course sessions will be led by Stevin Azo Michels. Stevin has been teaching video editing and tech theory at Tisch for over 20 years. An award-winning filmmaker, his work has been screened at many major international film festivals, including Sundance and at a retrospective at the ICA London.

Embrace the strange and fantastic with a one-day Special Effects Make-up intensive. In Blood and Gore 101, you will learn how to apply “out-of-kit” make-up effects, including: cuts, bruises, scars, wounds, and burns. You will receive a specially-designed make-up kit, yours to keep after the workshop. Photographs of your work will be available after the class so you can begin or add to your creative portfolio.
Rob Benevides, a special-effects make-up artist for nearly 30 years, is the instructor for Blood and Gore 101. He teaches in the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television and in the Open Arts program at Tisch.
