Tutorial Four and Five: Video Production Sessions

Tutorials four and five were all about video production. We looked at How to use a video camera correctly, filming techniques, editing videos and creating story boards. I also created my own YouTube account and uploaded the short film my group made.

A little bit about YouTube:

YouTube is a video sharing website on which individuals can create an account and upload and share video clips. Anything and everything can be found on YouTube and the content published is available to all users so there is a strict set of terms and conditions that have to be followed. YouTube allows you to comment on and rate others videos as well as providing links so you can add videos to your own blog or interactive community (such as Facebook and Bebo).

Before filming my group’s short film we created a story board. Through the story board we were able to plan each shot, drawing a basic sketch and writing a short description of what it entailed. This included who was in the shot, the camera angle and type of shot. A story board allowed us to plan out the filming sequence so when it came to filming the major decisions were already made and minimal assistance was needed from the director (me).

You can check out the final product below.

The Wrong Way



This is a our short film on over coming adversity.
