COM 225: Basic Video Production
3 credits
Students will learn basic video production skills through homework assignments and in-class exercises, including the reshooting of scenes from existing movies and the creation of new film projects. Students will be taught basic Photoshop skills along with how to shoot and edit videos using Adobe Premiere. (Distribution Reqs:Arts)
Learning Goals
Artistic expression is a central goal of this course. Students will be equipped with the rudiments of self-expression in the formats of video and media and then encouraged to “create.” Though technical information will be taught, technical expertise is not as important as gaining a handle on using these technical options for self-expression. By the end of the semester, students should feel comfortable making images that express their thoughts and feelings about the world. For production and journalism concentration students, this will provide a basis upon which to build. For media studies students, this will provide a deeper sense of how images are made. For all students this will also be a class in work habits: how to handle the various demands of projects and deliver the end product on time.
