In this course, students will learn how to script, direct and produce short video productions in non-interactive media.
Within the first weeks of course, groups will be formed and the creative process begins. Students will learn how to describe their ideas through a plot and treatment. Once their ideas are cohesive and clear, they can move on to the next step to build their dramatic script. Finally, it is up to the group to produce their idea using basic video production tools (camera, lighting sets, audio equipment).
This course is not just about producing a video project, but strongly depends on time management and individual responsibility - skills that are required in every line of work - therefore, these skills are emphasized during the semester.
Topics covered:
- Soundtrack building
- Video editing
- Shot composition
There are no specific software requirements. However, we suggest using a non-linear editor (like Adobe Premiere, Sony Vegas, Apple Final Cut Pro) for post-production. Due to the variety of NLE options, we cannot offer a training but we will always be available for questions you may have.
