All Roads Lead to Video
Thursday May 1, 2025 2:15pm - 3:00pm CDT
So, you want your students to produce media. You can stream it, you can upload it, you can print it…but how do you capture it? Video is easy; most of us have decent cameras in our pockets that get used every day (hour…minute…)...but what about *good* video? That’s harder. In this session, we’ll discuss practical ways to capture and edit better video for your content, on-set or on-location. Bring your computer if you like; Mac/Windows/Linux only, please.
