Video Skills
Make your own film! Do you have a story to tell? But you want it to look better than a home movie? Turn off those auto settings on your camera! Learn techniques to get better footage, better sound and a better edit. This 90-minute workshop will help you through the key steps towards more effective storytelling on video. There will be a practical demonstration with camera and lights, as well as a description and discussion of key steps to an effective production—The concept. The planning. The shoot. The edit, and the final show. This workshop will cover what you need to know. If the BIFF series has inspired you to make your mark, this is the class for you!
