Documentary Georgia Institute of Technology
DOCUMENT EVERYTHING! • Document as you go along • TRACK EVERYTHING • Materials • Planned Steps • Problems • Research • Use multiple mediums • Project Journal • Wiki • Video • Chat Logs • The more information, the better
Synthesize Information • Divide project progress into steps • Create brief project overview • Detail steps in spreadsheet • Step • Name • Description • Camera shots • Relevant graphics • KISS
Shoot • Obtain camera • Hit up rich uncle for money • Check camera out from library • $5 DV tape • Use shots obtained during initial documentation • Make new shots according to description placed in spreadsheet • Record description of each step separately to avoid multiple takes on camera • Record audio first to keep auditory cues for scene
Edit • Software • Desperate – Windows Movie Maker • Lazy – iMovie • Professional – Final Cut Pro / Adobe Premiere • Can be used in Library Media Labs • Rule of thumb • Cheaper the program, easier to use • No need for fancy editing, this is project documentation, not a Sundance entry • Drag clips to time slots, overlay with appropriate audio • Make titles screens for individual steps
Export • Online Video Services • YouTube • Popular • Annotations • Likelihood WMG will take you down increases • Omnisio • Synchronize Video with Slides • Just bought out by Google empire • Vimeo • Higher bitrate, better quality overall • Tighter community, comments not as bad as YouTube • MySpace/Facebook • You're funny. • PROFIT!
