Photography Workshop

Video Workshop with Bruce Petschek

Video Production

This workshop will focus on the versatility of GoPro cameras but will also cover cell phone video, amateur and professional equipment.  The focus of the workshop will be planning, shooting and editing a short video about summer experience that will be shown at the end of the week.  Participants can if they want bring questions about their own projects for discussion.  Participants are encouraged to bring any video equipment they own with them but that is not required as some GoPro cameras will be provided.  The following will be part of the workshop: Cinema verité, interviewing, landscape, time-lapse, night shooting, drone shooting (if allowed), and editing.  No previous experience is necessary.

Bruce Petschek says, “I have been in the freelance video production business since before video was invented. I started when I was 12 and I’m 72 now so that has been 60 years. I work for non-profits, theater and music productions, documentary and TV productions. I work for MIT, Harvard, Northeastern. and Leslie College documenting their arts and music programs.”
