Self-Expression through Filmmaking - IAFT Film School Cebu Blog




Ignacio Hennigs is an IAFT Filmmaking Alumni. His main hobby is photography but filmmaking gives him the tools for self-expression. You can check out his works here and here. He is a freelance photographer for Getty Images, Corbis Images and Demotix. He is also the photographer for NGOs in East and Central Africa as well as other international companies.

We were curious as to what our alumni feels about IAFT after he graduated so we asked him a couple of questions. Here’s what Ignacio has to say.


What have you been up to lately?

I graduated from film school few weeks ago. I’ve been looking for internship/job opportunities around the globe and seeing a variety of possibilities to find a source of income from filmmaking. There are a few interesting options but so far there is nothing concrete. All of them require an amount of risk.



Why did you decide to pursue filmmaking?

I felt the necessity to express myself thought other mediums different from Photography and Writing. Filmmaking gives me the tools I need for that.



How did you learn about IAFT and what made you choose IAFT for your film education?

IAFT offers a one-year program at an affordable price if compared with other film school.  They have a practical-oriented learning method. I learn by doing and making mistakes!



How has your education and experience at IAFT helped you?

I feel more capable and confident in doing what I love doing, which is filmmaking.



How would you rate your education and experience at IAFT?

It was overall good. I don’t regret coming to IAFT Cebu. I would do it again if I had the opportunity. I felt so attached to the school-life that now as an alumni I don’t want to leave.

One day I went to an IAFT open house in Saint Benilde and shortly after, I called to my mom and told her I was going to Cebu and that’s that. I chose IAFT because they showed a variety of impressive films and how its programs that actually allows you to be in front of a camera while working with them.

Film School Cebu - The Mystery and Design of the Art Department



The Mystery and Design of the Art Department
A Production Design Workshop with Emmy award winner Michael David Crenshaw

Saturday, 28th February, 1pm to 5pm at IAFT Cebu

Free admission. Open to all.

In this workshop we will be dissecting the inner workings of a feature film art department and de-mystify the names and positions of a credit list. The workshop will cover sub departments, work flow and how it all comes together.

We will observe examples of art direction from many different media sources and talk about framing and composition. Attendees will then work together in small groups to break down a script for an art department, and analyze the scene from a visual perspective.

By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a much better grasp of how art direction and design plays into visual arts, commercial and entertainment media.
