Have you ever wondered how those clips are made to look like time is passing? Is it wizardry? Not really, but understanding the method in which to shoot the images and then put them together does require some guidance. The Jedi Master is here to help.
Students will be required to have a movie-making program (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, Microsoft Movie Maker, iMovie).
Session One
