In this hands-on Videography training workshop, you can work on the technical and creative side of DSLR video (or any other video camera you may have!). You will learn from an industry expert how to go from pre-production to post-production while working hands-on with real equipment and scenarios. We will start with the design of your story, picking your locations, framing your shots, lighting your shots (if needed), using a green screen, mic’ing your subjects and capturing great footage using your video-capable DSLR (or any other video camera you may have). You will then put all the pieces together while enhancing picture and sound. The end file will be optimized for web and digital delivery.
- Pre-production
- Writing the Script
- Location Scouting
- Production
- Camera Setup
- Lighting the Scene
- Working with a green screen
- Shooting
- Post-Production: Editing demo in Premiere Pro
No prior knowledge of videography is required. Basic knowledge and experience in camera usage and computer technology is required. Users with experience in multimedia applications who are moving toward integrating video will gain from taking HSTS’s workshop. It is suggested that students bring in their own camera to class. Students must have a good working knowledge of computers, operating systems, using a mouse, keyboard, standard menus and commands. It is then suggested as a next step that students register for Premiere Pro Introfor further editing skills.
