Tutorial Four and Five: Video Production Sessions

ask One: Follow instructions and work in a small group to plan and produce and edit a 30 second short.

Task Two: Set up a U Tube account

Task Three: Follow instructions to posting your video on U Tube.

Task Four (Blog Posting): Provide a brief summary of the services offered by U Tube. Information can be drawn from the week five tutorial hand out.

You tube is a site that offers short movies/videos about everything and anything you could imagine. You can also post your own movies/videos on this site. Individuals can then use these movies like poetry to emphasise or express there feelings or point of view when they have run out of words or don't know how.

Task Five (Blog Posting): Provide a brief account (1-2 paragraphs) on how the use of planning (storyboarding and scripting aided your groups short film.

Planning our movie was vital. Once we had decided on a topic for our video, we had ideas rushing round but no real structure to the video that we were about to record. Without the storeyboard the process of recording would have been very stressfull and rather unstructured. And due to the limited amount of time having a written plan helped us see how we were going for time and how to best use our recording time.

The process of editing was a challenging experience (it was the computers fault), without the planning we had in place the editing process would have a nightmare with alot of clips to arrange in an order and sequence.
