Video Production is a class full of exploration and wonderment. Students learn about the complexities of a story and how to use a video camera to shoot and edit quality video that tells visual stories. Students work individually and collaboratively to make quality video productions that range from commercial shorts all the way to a short film–with a few hilarious videos thrown in there as well! Throughout the class, students will shift in their roles among actor, director, editor, and grip. Even though they will be encouraged to act, this is not a requirement.
