Hints For Success In This Class
1. Use your time at home with a camera wisely. Having your own camera is very helpful, but if you need to check out a camera from me make sure you plan your video shoot ahead of time.
2. Do not rely on your friends. Your friends are not receiving a grade and therefore are not as motivated as you are.
3. Do not wait until the last minute to shoot. Procrastination will hurt you in this class.
4. Shoot multiple takes of your shots from different angles so you have more to work with when you edit. It is highly recommend to shoot a wide "master shot" of the whole scene and then shoot close-ups after.
5. Make every shot count. Do not shoot random footage.
Email Me Please
Also, please CC one or both parents or guardians on this email so I can contact them via email as needed.
First, make sure you you tell me your complete name. Also include Video 1 in the subject line.
1. Why did you sign up for this course?
2. What experience do you have with Video Cameras?
3. What kind of movies and TV shows do you like?
4. What experience do you have with video editing? iMovie or Final Cut perhaps?
5. Are you familiar with Live Type, Motion, or Soundtrack Pro?
6. What kind of music do you listen to?
7. List two or three things I should know about you so I can help ensure you do well in this class.
