*Advanced Video Production

Now that you know the basics of making videos, you get to really dig in to advanced projects and skills. Students will learn how to create great characters, plots and how to direct actors for the best performance. Students get to use advanced video production equipment including DSLR cameras, audio equipment, and lights to get professional-looking imagery. We will dig into advanced editing techniques to finalize compelling films. Some examples of projects include short comedies and dramas, suspense, documentaries, commercials and PSA’s, and experimental films. This course requires time outside of class for the completion of assignments. Outstanding projects may compete in youth festivals and other contests.
