China and US partner on cinema arts classes (2)

The master classes will be held once a month, with each class running three to five days. Influential filmmakers from Hollywood and China will be invited to the classes to talk about their ideas on film, according to Sun Xin, from the Beijing Film Academy.

Peter Pau, the renowned Oscar-winning cinematographer of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," said at the opening ceremony, "I hope the cooperation between USC and BFA will open a bright future not only for Chinese cinema, but for the next generation of great filmmakers in China."

As the US partnership of the master class, the dean of USC-SCA, Elizabeth Daley, offered advice to young Chinese filmmakers. She suggested they develop stronger English skills, especially speaking skills, and also encouraged imagination. "All great films start inside the head, they start with the imagination."
