Hi Miso
I have taken a film making class and it was quite a lot of fun. You are right, you just have someone assist similar to a lab tech for a biology class. My class was once a week so it was for a longer period. We spent the day watching a movie and filling out a template of the different techniques used. I was able to do a considerable amount non visually since there was a book that went with it and filmmaking is a lot about the sound. The most challenging unit was probably the Charlie Chaplin one since those are silent and just have sound affects in the background. If you get a good "describer" and read the book, you can still learn lots of good stuff about filmmaking. Feel free to contact me individually if you have other questions.
