You will learn the basics of script writing, script editing/timing, storyboards, casting, rehearsals, props, misc. equipment, types of shots, types of narratives and how to shoot linearly (that means NO editing-it does not mean one long take). You will be taught how to do this with little or no budget. All students will complete a short video by the end of session.
Students need to have their own video camera and supply their own tapes or discs depending on the format of your camera. All cameras need to be able to record/pause/record. If you're unsure, test out your camera. If a student does not have a camera they need to pair up with someone who does (prior to class is preferable). Pairs will need to be able to get together outside of class. Definite homework involved. Working on your own will be a requirement. Like all video and film projects we will have a schedule to keep. Students younger than 13 will need to be paired up with an older student for this class.
