FILMMAKING TUTORING and MENTORSHIP
With a successful 20 year career in the filmmaking industry, Julie Rubio is passionate about educating a new, young generation of storytellers.
These days, a portfolio of work is required for most university film school admissions departments and Media Industry jobs. The question is where to begin?
"My goal is to establish a safe and open environment to discuss issues relating to the filmmaking process and begin the hands-on process of making a body of work. I strongly feel mentoring is a crucial part of my mission, and that it is incumbent upon us to ensure that new generations of youth in the film, television, and new media business are able to take advantage of the experiences of those who have gone before them.
From middle school to high school, it is never too early or too late to explore the world of filmmaking. In addition, I would like my clients to understand that within their creative process, there is no idea that is too small or too big to explore. Whether it is a personal, extracurricular project, or a serious path to a renowned filmmaking university, I have successfully mentored talented aspiring artists for years and truly look forward to working with you."
