About the video: What will we do in the course?
Overview
“A short film is a film format of less than 30 minutes in length, but in this course I will advise you to make a maximum of 10 minutes, since it is the duration that most film festivals accept in competition. Throughout the course, we will learn to tell stories through different narrative techniques in order to ensure that our short film has an adequate narrative and a professional aspect. To do this, I will use 100% professional software as Adobe Premiere Pro. Of course, you can use the editing program that you feel most comfortable with. At the end of the day, the important thing is to tell stories, not the program with which it is done. You will learn to edit, that is, you will make the complete edition of a short film step by step, from the first process, such as dumping files, to the final export for correct viewing, going through all the intermediate processes. At the end of the course you will have your short film edited and ready to be published! ”
In this video lesson Juanmi Cristóbal addresses the topic: What will we do in the course?, which is part of the Domestika online course: Audiovisual Editing and Narrative for Short Films. Learn different techniques to tell your story with professional standards from start to finish.
