This workshop is a remix of a workshop originally developed by Jesse Garcia. This remix (created by Jesse, Tim Miller, and Christina Cordova) contextualizes Jesse’s original workshop to focus on the HSU Student Snapshots project. It is the second in a three-part series to support students in creating short testimonial videos about their experiences as students at Humboldt State University as part of an ongoing project called HSU Student Snapshots. You can view the current student video submissions via the YouTube playlist.
Jesse and Christina helped to develop this workshop series as for HSU SkillShops as Digital Media & Learning Interns during Spring 2018. The original workshops were offered March 27 & March 28, 2018.

This workshop was developed as a quick overview of different options for shooting a testimonial for the Student Snapshots project. The intended audience is individuals who have little to no experience creating a video. It is intended to be a launching off point for someone who has interest in creating a video but doesn’t know where to start. The workshop begins with a discussion about setting up a scene and determining what is required to film it. It is not intended to be an exhaustive or authoritative look at video or film production.
The guide for this workshop follows the structure of the lesson and can be used as a lesson plan. It provides some basic information as well as a list of resources to help with video projects.

There are no defined activies for this workshop, but facilitators should bring equipment for participants to try out and play with. Depending on the participants’ needs and feedback, discussions about setup, locations, lighting and more can be a useful follow-up to introducing the guide. The guide also includes links to more resources and options for projects.
