Video Production

Best Tips for Video Production:

1) Save - make a one-stop shop folder where you not only save your video as you edit but also where you save all the media that goes into the video. Do not save anything outside of this folder!

2) PLAN - Don't start filming until every film-second is planned. Storyboard your ideas if you have time. The more you plan, the faster you can film and "end scene".

A tool like Celtx may help you PLAN. It is a program you can use to organize your characters, timeline, shooting schedule, script, etc. all in one place. Very cool free tool!

Sharing your video:

1) Upload it to YouTube if you are home. http://www.youtube.com
The best deal for teachers is that they all have access to YouTube. So your teacher's computer that is connected to the projector can connect to YouTube to show your video. YouTube is free storage for videos.

or

2) Upload it to TeacherTube if you are at home or school. http://www.teachertube.com
This site is for teachers (and students) to host educational videos. It looks and runs just like YouTube.

or

3) Check out SchoolTube. http://www.schooltube.com/
This is a site to encourage students and teachers to use video technology more in their schools. Not only can you upload videos to share but you can view a lot of other student video projects online. Its an awesome resource!!! And I love the idea of film making for our students. Such a tremendous resource and so interesting too.
