Course Description
Intended Outcomes for the course
Upon completion of the course, students should be able to:
- 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网 project ideas, treatments, and other pre-production materials, and produce an idea as high quality finished video product.
- Apply continuity and composition values to video production projects.
- Set up and use professional video recording gear, lighting and audio recording equipment at an intermediate-level in the field for narrative production.
- Edit digital media at an intermediate-level using industry standard non-linear editing software.
- Use basic sound and lighting design techniques, concepts, and tools to measure light, color and sound.
- Work effectively as a member of a video production crew at an intermediate-level.
Course Activities and Design
Materials will be presented via lectures, demonstrations, and reading assignments. Students will learn and demonstrate their abilities through hands-on assignments and participation on video production crews. Guest speakers and field trips to media production facilities or other industry related events will provide students with a broader understanding of the video industry.
Outcome Assessment Strategies
Student fulfillment of expected outcomes will be assessed using: video and audio assignments; written quizzes; written assignments; practical exams in which the student demonstrates hands-on skills and abilities; observation by production staff
