Start Date: February 14th, 2010
This 2-week HDV workshop is designed for photojournalists who are looking to make the move to videojournalism and the web, new documentary filmmakers who want to launch their careers in web and television documentaries and for those with experience in some aspects of film making that are looking to expand their skill, understanding and mastery of the whole process. Producers, cinematographers, editors and writers with narrative experience who are considering working in non-fiction film making are also encouraged to enroll.
Students will learn all aspects of the process including the importance of the still image, HDV camera, compact lighting methods, field sound, field editing and how to weave the story. To view an extended version of the course description, visit our website at barefootworkshops.org

Barefoot Workshops is a New York City-based not-for-profit 501(c)3, founded by Chandler Griffin in 2004, that offers short, intensive workshops around the world in narrative and documentary filmmaking. We assist organizations and individuals to use media, music and the arts, to accelerate progress and program goals in areas such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, conflict resolution, resettlement, youth empowerment, civil rights, and democracy building. We have worked with partners as diverse as UNESCO, Desmond Tutu HIV Foundation, The U.S. State Department and The Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI), to pioneer new formats and “media templates” that reinforce citizen-led, community-owned solutions to these challenges.
The main goal of Barefoot Workshops is to equip students with the knowledge and confidence to use sophisticated equipment while having a foundation that allows a person to create beautiful images regardless of the tools. At Barefoot, growing and learning as a filmmaker means growing and learning as an individual

Many Thanks for the great tutorial ! I cant wait to see the next one ! – its something that i’ve wanted to do for a while now !
Cheers,
Abhi.
I second Abhi here. I can’t wait to see the second part of the tutorial. I used Flash to build sites with multiple slideshows but I didn’t know that Soundslide offered that option too without extra Flash knowledge….
I’m really very new to Soundslides so this was a great thing to see! Even though it is an “easy” program, there are certainly things to learn, and I did from this video. I’m really looking forward to the next one! Thanks!!!

Quick tip for making a “dead track”—
I use Audacity for some of my sound work (because it is free) and in the Generate menu you can choose Silence. Just type in the length in seconds and export as AIFF or MP3 file.
Where did the tutorial go?
sorry, it’s back
Cool tutorial. What I’m really trying to figure out is how to make videos like your tutorial.
I want to show what I’m doing on my computer monitor, connect it with audio explaining what I’m doing, and create tutorials for my stats students. How do I capture my monitor video? I see this everywhere but have yet to figure it out.
FWIW, I have found Eyespot Mixer to edit and combine videos, photos and audio online and Toufee to create and publish flash movies and presentations online… both for FREE, so that’s really cool.
Thanks in advance for your help!
i use a program called snapz pro x
Thanks! Apparently that’s for Mac but it sent me in the right direction. I found programs here for PC: http://www.techsmith.com/
