準備好拍攝吧！ – 家庭影片製作簡介

This is a fun, introductory 3-session course aimed at students who want to begin to investigate how to capture great movie footage and sound at home using tablets, phones and digital devices. 

Each session will start with a warmup activity and includes opportunities for hands on activities. Participation is not essential but warmly encouraged. 

> Session 1: This session will encourage students to examine different film genres and to consider the different job roles available within the film industry. We will investigate how footage can be captured using different types of camera shots and angles. The session will close with an onscreen quiz and prop challenge. 

> Session 2: This session focuses on the role of storyboarding in film design and students will be given the opportunity to storyboard a short sequence. The role of music will be examined, and students will listen to and select appropriate music clips for different film settings. Students will be introduced to some of the hardware and equipment used to record sound in the studio and on location. 

> Session 3: This session explores the use of Foley sound effects and other audio post-production techniques. Students will participate in a Foley scavenger hunt and a short sound quiz. Students will examine the role of Copyright in selecting resources. 

Students are encouraged to participate in different activities outside the classroom, including capturing video and audio footage of their own. They are welcome to share their footage in the classroom or privately for feedback. It is not essential that students complete the activities, but completion is designed to reinforce the content of each session.
