Class Description

Description

Learn to produce compelling original video content that will connect readers, clients or stakeholders to the news, projects and people that matter. In this class, which will include a lot of 1-1 instruction, you will pitch, storyboard, shoot and edit a short, interview-based video story. 

No experience needed, but lots of passion required. We will cover:

Session 1
  • The elements of a video story - characters, interviews, visual scenes and sequences. 
  • How to shoot and interview - framing, audio, and interviewing techniques. 
  • Shooting exercise.
Session 2
  • Shooting scenes, sequences and B-roll: the 5-shot rule;
  • strategies for getting good visuals, even with non-visual stories;
  • creating a shot list; 
  • finding archival elements. 
  • Shooting exercise.
Session 3
  • Putting it all together
  • The paper edit
  • Organizing your footage
  • Rough cut
  • Reshoot
Session 4
  • Workshop radio cut
Session 5
  • Workshop rough cuts
  • Screening
What to bring: 
  • Each student must come to class with a smartphone (with free storage space) or a video camera they know how to use, and the ability to transfer footage from their device to his/her laptop. 
  • Each person is also required to come with some kind of editing program (iMovie, Premier, Final Cut) on his/her laptop. 
Please note: 
  • This is NOT an editing class. The professor can assist on technical matters to a limited extent, but the bulk of the instruction will revolve around gathering elements and structuring a video story. 

  • You should come prepared to do basic editing with whatever program you have access to. The instructor will send links to online tutorials in advance of the class for programs such iMovie, final cut, Adobe Premier, etc.
