Do you want to understand the creative techniques broadcast pros use when shooting for a TV show?Would you like to be taught by a genuine TV broadcast professional?Do you want to improve the quality of your videos, to the point where your audience can’t get enough?Are you moving from still photography to video, and are not finding it easy?Are your videos just not getting noticed and shared on your YouTube channel?As a professional video cameraperson, are you not getting noticed because your work is technically fine, but not creatively outstanding?Then you have come to the right place. Making great video is not some great secret that no one is willing to share. The trouble is, most video courses on the net are presented by filmmakers making wedding videos and low budget music videos or their own YouTube channel. Very few are broadcast professionals. The proof is that most courses focus primarily on equipment, which requires limited creative insight. This course is differentI’ve beena broadcast professional for 37 years. And I’ve won international awards for my work. And I will nowteach you the creative elements needed to make great videos. So, if you want to improve your videos to the point where they enrapture the audience and have them begging for more, know this: It is NOT about getting better equipment! Because. Filmmakers: Professionals worry about money, Artists worry about light and sound, Amateurs worry about equipment. If you spend a lot of time worrying about equipment, is it not the time you stepped up to being an artist or a professional?Even if you understand codecs, and cameras and sensors sizes and lenses, it is not enough. Knowledge without skills can never create a masterpiece. And that is why this course is about honing your creative video skills. I do this in two parts. This course covers easy to understand shooting techniques that are used by broadcast professionals being paid upward of $1000 per day. The second course, is the creative editing: Video Editing -Inspire your audience with creative flair. (That’s a different course)Cameras and gearWhen youenjoya great meal, do you congratulate the chef by saying, “You must have a great stove?” Of course you don’t. It’s the same with filmmakers. A great film is not created by a great camera. It’s created by talented, creative people. And those people use tools (cameras and lenses) to do it. So this course is not about the tools. It is about why a tool might be used in a particular way. So if you are in need of creative inspiration, then these courses are right for you. We teach the creative part of video filmmaking. We teach filmmaking skills at a level that can be understood by the lay-person or amateur cinematographer, from techniques used by broadcast professionals.
