"Intro to video for makers" session?

#1

Video can be a great way to share your projects and knowledge.

Would people be interested in attending “introduction to video for makers” session some day? It could cover things like:

  • production workflow

(how to stay organised and avoid doing same things 3 times, unless you badly want to)

  • equipment selection

(what to shoot with, how to make it look good and not go broke in the process)

  • location considerations

(space, light, sound - turn your shed into Pinewood Studios! ok, not really, but you know what I mean)

  • shooting techniques

(macro, hyperlapse and anything in between)

  • editing

(introduction do Premiere?)

  • Q&A and troubleshooting members video projects

I would be REALLY interested in this! Bear in mind I don’t have any prior knowledge. I’ve been wanting to learn to do a recording that shows a project from start to finish. I hope I can make the date and you don’t mind that I know nothing.

Yep - this would be aimed at people with no or very little experience (emphasis on “introduction” and not “film school”), with the idea of providing a good overview and some tips on how to make things like project videos, demonstrating how easy and fun that can be, etc.

What a great offer. I’m interested too.

Do you want to pick a date and time, and decide how many members you can accommodate?
