I've been teaching popular and well-reviewed Film Study classes on Outschool for almost 4 years. I studied film and cinematography in high school, made several short films for those classes, and edit videos as part of my professional freelancing. I'm a film buff who watches movies across all eras and from around the world. I’m excited to explore the magic of filmmaking with you!
Welcome to the Film Study & Youtube Movie-Making Lounge! I'm excited to watch your home movies and talk about our favorite films with you. Below are Outschool's group participation guidelines. Above all, be good to each other in the group, and we'll all have fun! "We want all of our learners to feel comfortable, connected, and safe. That's why we have 3 rules we ask you to follow: Be Kind, Be Safe, and Be Respectful. Be Kind - Help all learners feel welcome and included. Learners from all over the world, with different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities, religions and body types, participate in our Group. Always be nice and make others, especially new learners, know that they belong and are welcome. Teasing, name calling, or bullying anybody in our community? Nope. Not happening here Be Safe - Keep your personal information private and never ask other learners for theirs. Personal things are personal. We want to keep you safe on Outschool, but we also want YOU to understand how to be safe when you're meeting other learners or teachers. Keep your full name, home address, gaming or social media name, email, and school name private. Be Respectful - Treat others how you want to be treated. Keep language clean and information you share safe. If you wouldn't say it or share with your grandma, don't do it here. Swear words, racy videos, and violent images are not allowed. Treat Outschool like a public place, and when in doubt, keep things covered."
This class includes Youtube videos embedded in the Outschool Classroom (approved Outschool resource). For students planning to make their own Youtube videos: Youtube requires parent account creation for learners under the age of 13.
