During the new HOLY FUCK erotic film festival in Amsterdam, Jennifer is happy to announce she will teach her popular workshop “From Fantasy To Film: Designing Your Own Porn & Erotica.”

This workshop is for everyone: Just come with your creative imagination. Jennifer provides the filmclips, the pens, and the discussion.

 

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

Imagine a perfect porn film, designed with your own erotic tastes and quirks in mind. Guess what? – You can make it! In this beginner’s workshop, award-winning filmmaker Jennifer Lyon Bell of Blue Artichoke Films (Netherlands/USA) gives you the tools to plan and create your very own porn movie – whether you later decide to pick up a camera and do it, or whether you just like knowing that you could.

• Erotic exploration – What turns you on? Jennifer will give you exercises to tweak your erotic imagination and help you decide what you’d personally love to see on film, no matter how soft or hard.

• Translating to film – Jennifer will show you some porn genres and styles to help you choose how you want express your idea. Maybe you’ll even come up with something new. You’ll make your own storyboard to take home.

• Tips and tricks – Jennifer is a filmmaker herself, and has also heard the inside scoop from lots of other porn directors. She’ll share secret tips for Beginners on what to do and what to avoid when making your movie.

 

All genders are welcome. Jennifer strives to create a safe, non-judgmental place where you can explore your wildest ideas. Jennifer will conduct the workshop in English, but she does speak passable Dutch, and small group discussions can definitely be in Dutch if preferred.
