Advanced video students in this course will take an independent study approach to learning higher level video skills through a selection of creative and collaborative projects. Emphasizing 5 primary videography skills in Script (preproduction), Camera, Audio, Lighting, editing (post-production), the students will complete 4-5 projects during the semester selected from typical categories of professional video productions, such as a promotional video, an informational video, a short film, etc. VP2 is embedded in the regular Video Production class, so students will need to demonstrate exemplary behavior and standards. They will collaborate with each other, and will frequently need to use time outside of class: lunchtimes, after school, evenings, weekends, etc. VP2 students will be asked to assist the instructor in BCS requested video projects and may either include them as projects for class or as extra credit.
