BBC ‘Making Movies on a shoestring’ Masterclass
Devised and presented by the BBC, at this hands-on workshop create a great video, working in groups facilitated by Nick Shackleton-Jones and his BBC colleagues:
1. Intro to developing online content
2. Design: What to film
3. Script content; collect images
3. Film a video with voice-over
4. Edit and upload the video
5. Show & Tell to the class
All done on a shoestring.
The ability to communicate effectively with video in the mix is a highly desirable skill, one for which demand will only increase. Almost everyone carries a digital camera these days, making the idea of creating video more accessible than ever. And thanks to websites like YouTube, there are many low cost routes to publishing and promoting your finished material. At the same time there is a growing financial imperative to bring production skills back in-house rather than outsource. And so this session promises to be very timely.
