The DASH Entertainment Technology program teaches the behind-the-camera aspects of the film world including script-writing, story-boarding, working with editing software such as Final Cut Pro, using state-of-the-art equipment, researching career options in the film industry, and submitting work to the festival circuit. Students work within production companies and have to budget their projects. Phantom Filmworks students have been regularly invited to participate alongside real world projects shot on location in Miami. They produce events that incorporate lighting, audio, cinematography, directing, and budgeting. Their teacher is DASH graduate Megan Rojas. Every year, DASH senior filmmakers share their best short films, music videos, and animated movies at the Phantom Film Festival in a local theater on the big screen. These students coordinate their own projects by working independently and collaboratively, and need to develop strong time management skills both in and out of class.
