Videography: shot on iphone
Videography: Shot on iPhone is an elective open to students in Classes X-XII at Marymount.
Semester 1
Students learn the basic techniques in making short films, including how to create professional camera shots; edit footage; and add soundtracks, special effects, and credits. No previous film-making experience necessary. Students also learn about the history of film so that they can use that knowledge to interpret the world from their own points of view and tell their own stories. Students produce several short films during the semester and exhibit their work in screenings and online.
Semester 2
Using the technical skills learned in Semester 1, students spend the semester writing, producing, directing, filming and editing their own projects. Students become familiar with the language of film through class presentations and screenings in conjunction with actual filming. The third quarter is devoted to writing scripts and filming short exercises, such as staged dialogue. The fourth quarter is devoted to working on a class film crew and producing - from scratch - a short original film. Each student will have the opportunity to work in various roles on a film crew. Students learn about the technical and aesthetic aspects of film in the process of creating their own work.
