Mockumentary following ghost hunters around the English Building.
Beginner
Can be filmed entirely with a smartphone (though we do encourage using a video camera and audio recorders if you have access to them)
A chance to practice the 5-shot formula, composition, and exposure (if you don't know how these work, we will teach you!)
Filming locations are easy to access pretty much anytime
Minimal editing, just building sequences and simple title graphics
More on the short-form side, so less time commitment overall
Individual, do it on your own time
Flexible deadlines
Intended for people who are new to filming, interviewing, and/or editing (though experienced members are encouraged to take on leadership positions)
Experienced
Will mainly use video cameras, and audio recorders with external mics will be used for all interviews
Interviews for these projects will always have a member tasked with monitoring audio
A chance to try out more creative and advanced filming techniques
More complicated editingÂ
Some of these projects may be more on the long-form side, which means long-term commitment
Often involve scheduled shoots, more collaborative
Hard deadlines
Intended for people who already have the basic skills and are willing to commit to specific role(s) for the duration of the project
