OxTalks is Changing
            
                On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
            
            
                There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.

From Film Theory to Film Reality: A Practical Toolkit for People Who Actually Want to Make Movies
    
	In his 25 years of producing dozens of films that grossed over $3 billion at the international box office, Micheal Flaherty has met two kinds of producers. One works in the “talking about making movies” business. The other works in the making movies business. This lecture is for people in the second camp. Flaherty won’t just talk about movies—he’ll equip you with the tools you need to actually get them made. From budgets and casting to production timelines and distribution strategy, this is a hands-on, practical session for anyone ready to move from academic theory to on-set reality.
