What do you need to make a video?
Some video projects require that you create your own video and sound elements. Other video projects involve finding videos online or in archives and editing those elements together into a new project.
This module will give you suggestions and resources for recording your own video and finding other media online. In general, unless the project specifically states otherwise, you should plan to record as much of the video yourself as possible, rather than sourcing video online.
We will break video production into two parts:
For recording video, we need to have equipment to record video and audio, and a location to record with good lighting and sound.
When finding video online, we need to have copyright permission to use the video, and find the highest quality video that we can.
