Digital Video: Story Development + Project Production

NC1093-01

Through a dynamic combination of in-class presentations, technique-building exercises, and informative discussions, Story Development and Project Production immerses students in the process of developing a story idea and putting it into production as a nonfiction or fictional narrative video work. Over the seven weeks, students advance a term project that may be a complete short story, or a scene or pitch reel for a longer project. Participants focus on defining and structuring compelling narratives with a scene-based, character-driven approach that engages viewers, avoiding the pitfalls of stories that tell rather than show. Through intensive development of a self-driven personal project, students discover their storytelling identity and deepen their digital video practice.

Prerequisites and Details:

• MassArt PCE’s two foundational video classes: Digital Video: Camera and Sound and Digital Video: Editing and Post-Production, or equivalent experience with permission of instructor.

• All registrants are provided free access to Adobe Premiere Pro with an active MassArt NET ID, which they will need to download and set up on their computers in advance of the class.
