Media and Video Production

COURSE INTRODUCTION:

Congratulations, you’ve started the journey of producing, filming and editing videos for 24/7 Teach’s current website. Video production is the process of creating a video. Whether it’s a short film, a full-length movie, business marketing video, television commercial, music video, or other type of film; the process may vary a little with the specifics, but the overall process is essentially the same. The basic process can be broken down into three subcategories: pre-production, production, and post-production.

In this course, you will be introduced to the concepts of video production. You will take notes on the materials, complete assignments, answer research questions, participate in a group discussion forum, complete assessments, create videos, and complete projects on the material.
