THE BASICS
In this preliminary lesson we will be teaching you how to make and finish your first film. We will cover all the basic techniques for video and sound recording and suggest ideas for filming specific types of films, before completing the secakition with a look at editing and exporting your film to the internet.
Your equipment
Here, we’ll look at the equipment you’ll be using for filmmaking—what the gear is for and why you might need it. There’s a mix of basic and
advanced equipment—from video cameras and microphones to lighting,
computers, video monitors and steadicams—to help you decide what is
right for you now and what might be useful in the future.
Using your kit
Once we know what we need, we’ll start to look at how to use it. In this lesson we cover camera-handling techniques and how to set up lighting and sound-recording gear, and go through the technical areas of shot composition, shutter speed, ND filters, using depth of field, setting color
balance, using picture styles and choosing between natural and artificial lighting for the best effects. If you are the proud owner of a new video camera, try getting to grips
with it in a peaceful, natural environment, so that you can take your time exploring all the settings without being hassled.
Your first film project
Now it’s time to put your new knowledge into action by filming specific
projects such as a friend’s wedding, live music, a sports or wildlife film,
interviews or family videos. Learn about basic makeup and what not to wear, as well as how and when to use different camera shots to make your editing easier.
Basic editing
This lesson explains how to physically get your video from your camera into your computer and how to edit it into your first video using entry-level software. We show you how to add a soundtrack and video effects and then upload your video to the internet to share with friends and family.
ADVANCED FILMMAKING
Armed with the skills to create a simple project, we’ll now delve a lot deeper into the art of filmmaking, especially into techniques used for shorts and feature drama as well as documentary production. We will cover all aspects of the digital filmmaking process, from planning, scriptwriting and casting to shooting the film and eventually taking it into the edit. We’ll explain how to add special effects, sound effects and Foley
until you have a finished film on Blu-ray or the internet.
Pre-production
Before we go into the actual shoot, we take you through the process of
pre-production, where you will learn how a script is written, what makes an exciting story, and what genre your story might fall into. Then we will consider all the tasks that need to be organized before you start shooting your film, like planning and scheduling the production, finding funding sources, how to go about casting your film, how to choose locations and get filming licenses for them, and tips on makeup and wardrobe.
The shoot
Before we take you through the various aspects of a film shoot, we’ll
discuss the key jobs on set—from focus puller to script supervisor, from
key grip tm am key go director. We’ll explain the process of blocking a
scene for actors and camera, rehearsing it, setting it up, and why it is
useful to understand headroom, eyelines and the all-important concept of the stage line. We’ll go deeper into all other aspects of practical filmmaking on set, including advanced composition techniques, 3D
filmmaking, chroma keying, and using car camera rigs. Finally, we’ll discuss documentary and its different approach to planning, scripting and production.
Advanced editing
This lesson brings together all the stuff that needs to happen to complete your film. We look at importing footage, synchronizing and cleaning up picture and sound, and fixing shaky or noisy footage, and then go on to cover editing techniques, types of cuts and transitions and how to edit the film with music. Finally, we explain how to create a credit sequence and do a color grade.
Going live
Now that the film is completed, you are ready to release it to your friends, family or the wider world at large. We’ll now look at delivery formats such as DVD and Blu-ray and how to output your film for film festivals as well as self-distribution via the internet and video-sharing sites such as
YouTube and Vimeo.
