Make a movie with puppets! This is an online class, and most of it will be practical, hands on, film production work. Participants should bring a willingness to be silly! And probably some puppets! A decent computer and internet connection. Paper and pencils, coloured markers are a plus. They will need space to work, a camera (can be camera, camcorder, phone, or even webcam), and an editing program. Not all the things are needed if the student doesn’t take all the classes.
Session 1: Ways to plan, write, and storyboard.
Session 2: Lights! Camera! Gear! The stuff before you call “Action!”
Session 3: “Action!” Ways to set up your shot and shoot it.
Session 4: Editing. How your footage becomes MOVIE!
