Videography Basics

3-5 Participants

This 6-hour workshop will begin by discussing the fundamental pillars of video camera systems: aperture, shutter speed, focal length, format (sensor size), and white balance. Illustrated workshop notes will be provided to help participants gain a practical understanding of the material. Once these concepts are explained, the group will apply them all in a studio setting using current industry standard 4K video cameras, and each participant will have a chance to fill each role on set (Director of Photography, Camera Operator, Grip, Sound Recorder, and Subject).

This course will cover the following:

  • Hands on experience with a professional 4K video camera
  • Review of camera theory relating to imaging fundamentals
  • Discussion and demonstration of accessories (proprietary and third party)
  • Discussion of lighting theory and placement
  • Hands on experience rotating crew positions in a studio shoot setting
  • Discussion regarding more advanced techniques and accessories
  • Digital copy of workshop notes/reference material
