MiND TV Boot Camp: A Media Making Workshop
MiND Boot Camp: You Can Do It!
Join us for a one day workshop on, How to Make a 5-minute TV Program. Learn about concept development, video production, editing, and just about everything you need to know to bring your ideas to TV. Share your organization's story with the world through the medium of video.
Spend the morning with our instructors and learn about concept development and how to efficiently pre-produce a program idea. Make sure you come with an idea for a 5 minute program! Take a short break and then jump right into shooting basics. Learn the primary functions of a video camera and how to properly frame a shot.
Spend the afternoon in smaller groups to get a crash course in editing and participate in a field shoot. One of your afternoon sessions will require you to actually pre-produce one of your program ideas, so make sure you come prepared!
Here’s what people are saying about the Bootcamp:
"Thank you! A session like this would typically cost a few hundred dollars to experience, so thank you for extending this invitation and making it so accessible."
"The staff was clearly enthusiastic about doing this seminar. You can tell that a lot of time and effort went into development of all the written materials and every verbal presentation."
