Andru Film Academy is restarting.
A modern filmmaking and visual storytelling platform. Filmmaking stays at the core — directing, drones, AI, and content strategy are supporting reels, not the whole picture.
Seven modules, ~10.5 hours
Self-paced to start. Some modules are taught by Andrufilms directly, others by guest experts brought in for their specific craft.
Foundations of Storytelling & Camera
Camera basics — exposure, framing, composition — plus story structure for short-form work and building a shot list before you ever pick up a camera.
2 hoursDirecting
Working with talent who've never been on camera, blocking and staging a scene, directing performance vs. directing real moments, and running a set the crew and talent both trust.
1.5 hoursProduction Craft: Light & Sound
Lighting on a budget and audio capture fundamentals that hold up in the edit.
1.5 hoursPost-Production: Edit, Color, Sound Design
Cutting for rhythm and story, a practical color grading workflow, and basic sound design and mixing.
1.5 hoursDrone Operations
Safety and regulation basics, core cinematic drone moves, and knowing when a drone shot actually serves the story.
1 hourAI in the Workflow
Where AI genuinely helps — previz, footage and audio cleanup, faster social cuts — as a tool inside traditional craft, not a replacement for it.
1.5 hoursContent, Distribution & the Business of Filmmaking
Packaging work for social, pricing a gig, client communication, building a portfolio that books work, and the basics of running a production business.
