Welcome to the 2nd Annual ASL Consortium Summer Institute
Session 2: Making and using video for instruction and homework
http://seattlecentral.edu/faculty/gmatha

- Description
- What to bring with you

	Both Mac and PC computers platforms will be supported during the workshop.  Mac users will focus on iMovie® editing software and PC users will focus on Microsoft Movie Maker 2® software. The features and principles of these two software are very similar.
Parts of this website focuses on MS Movie Maker 2®.  Click for specific iMovie® support.
Don't have Microsoft Movie Maker 2® on your PC?  Here is the free download -  http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/moviemaker2.mspx

Description:  This session is going to be very “hands-on”.  There will be some large-group instruction as we walk through theory and software tools together.  We will split up into “production crews” who will work on their projects during the week.  Projects will be showcased and shared on the final afternoon of the session.  Key topics will include lighting, shooting, background, clothing, story boarding, capturing video from a camera, editing the video, enhancing the image, transitions, encoding for the desired final product, and storing your media (including burning to CD, DVD, and storing on a server).

What to bring with you:

4If you have a flash drive (also called a thumb drive, jump drive or USB mass storage device), it will behoove you to bring it with you to help transfer large video files.  512 mb or more storage is terrific - but 128 mb will be fine.  These are sold at any office supply store.

4If you have a school or personal laptop or digital video camera you should consider bringing it with you.  What better practice than to use your own equipment?
