MASTER THE
DIRECTING PIPELINE
Phase 1: The Montage & Social Launch
Stop just learning and start making. We guide you step-by-step to plan your shoot with pro tools, direct on set in Jersey City using 4K cinema gear, edit your final videos at Mana Contemporary, and release them like a pro.
Visual Prep & World Building: We teach you how to use Shotdeck to find the perfect cinematic look, and guide you through building a clear shot list, mood board, and story in Milanote.
On-Set Directing: Take the director's chair for 3–4 hours. We guide you through operating a 4K camera, framing your shot, and shaping light to tell a stronger story.
Post & Sound Design: Two dedicated and guided edit sessions at Mana Studio using DaVinci Resolve to assemble your 60-second cut and teaser complete with custom sound design, audio mixing, and color grading.
Release Strategy: We show you exactly how to package your film. We will help you design a clickable thumbnail, write a catchy title, and build a social media rollout plan.
Direct Producer Mentorship: Get hands-on guidance from 3R producers and our studio crew. Whether you need help finding actors, working on set, or reviewing your final cut, our team is in your corner.
