Moving Pictures: Videography for Absolute Beginners

Video adds two things a photograph never has to handle: time and sound. Starting from zero, this course teaches you how to shoot footage that's steady, well exposed, and clean-sounding, how to light and frame moving subjects, how to film people, animals, events, places, and artwork, and how to plan, cut, color, and publish a finished film people actually watch to the end. Every level works with an entry-level camera or a good smartphone, plus free editing software, and every level ends with an assignment you can shoot today.
