Week 3
Basic Filming and Editing
This week we will double-check our progress on last week's tasks and ease into the technical aspects of film production by making machinimas from still photos of our actors in the various locales specified by our scripts. We will also practice shooting some footage. This practice with filming tools and techniques will help us make sure we are ready for producing live action footage in Week 4.
