Objectives
- Identify the key principles of audiovisual language and video content formats;
- Master the basic tools for producing short video clips, with or without a professional crew;
- Analyze a job posting or audition announcement to tailor your digital presentation and application accordingly.
Teaching resources and methods
The workshop will take place in a dance studio equipped with professional gear (professional camera, camera stabilizer, smartphone stabilizer, light tubes, wireless lavalier microphones), and will include:
- A mix of theoretical instruction and hands-on exercises, including technical hands-on practice with the equipment;
- Discussions with experienced professionals.
Trainees may bring their own smartphones to work with.
Participants are asked to prepare a brief written presentation of their background prior to the training. This presentation will serve as the basis for a video clip lasting approximately one minute.
To best prepare for the video shoots, participants are asked to think about the music tracks they’d like to use and to bring an outfit they can be filmed in, as well as any costumes and props they may wish to use for their projects.
Participants will leave the workshop with the videos they have created, which they are free to use as they wish. The course materials (PowerPoint presentation) will be emailed to participants after the workshop.
Please note that participants will need to bring their personal laptops on the workshop's fourth day in order to work on editing their content.
