Course Description: Movie Making—The Basics - Eric Kenning


$25.00



New for July 2010 - Movie Making—The Basics

Movie Making—the Basics is an entry-level course for those who want to move from simply shooting random video shots to making a movie that tells a story.

Today camcorders are available that can create video at a higher quality then ever before.  With the increasing number of outlets for showing video such as YouTube, video is now available to everyone and is no longer the domain of a few.

Newcomers to video find that producing a video is not just a matter of pointing a camcorder and recording images that move.  They soon learn that shaping the raw footage into something interesting and outputting it into a video format that can be viewed on a home DVD, or on the Internet is a challenging task.

The lessons are in two parts, The Camera Workshop and The Cutting Room.  The Camera Workshop will guide you step-by-step through a series of exercises designed to show you how to shoot video shots that can be edited into a story.  In the Cutting Room you will learn how to edit your shots and add sound, transitions and effects.  Each lesson has exercises for you to carry out as well as a class project for you to work on over the six weeks.

The editing work will be carried out on Window Movie Maker so there will not be any additional cost for editing software.

Skill level: beginner
