About Norman C. Berns

An Emmy-winning filmmaker, I currently write, produce, direct and teach. My production work has run the gamut from theatrical and features, from documentaries to television and commercials.

A member of The Internet Press Guild, my articles have appeared in the seminal online publication, WebZine Weekly, as well as for The Directors Guild, Tripod, BTL News, reelgrok and Pavaline. A certified Movie Magic instructor, I was an early beta tester for Screenplay Systems and was part of the development team that created ProductionPro Budget.

Currently a consultant to the Roy W. Dean Film & Video Grants and on the Advisory Board for the People With Disabilities Broadcasting Corporation, I am moderator of The Budgeting Group and owner of the online film community, reelgrok. I am a frequent guest lecturer and have taught film production techniques and software for Media Services, The Directors Guild, Filmmakers Bootcamp and others. My regular online classes stress the fundamentals of filmmaking, from script breakdown to successful pitching.
