Camera Basics For Video Creators

Understanding your camera will make you confidant every time you press record. Once you can master the technical aspects of a camera then you can focus on what you’re filming vs how your filming it.

This class will teach you everything you need to get started with your camera for making videos.  We will explore all the settings and tools that you have on all cameras. The goal is to have a clear understanding on how to control your exposure and color when using any camera.

1. Controlling Exposure – We’ll go over the exposure triangle and the dual functions each one of these settings has and how it impacts your footage.
2. Proper Color – Knowing what settings you have available will be the difference between having good looking shots vs footage that is too blue or too orange.  
3. Audio Walkthrough – As a video creator you’re going to be controlling your image and your audio.  I go through the basics to get up and running with clean audio to use in your edits.

If you’re a complete beginner or you have made some videos then this class will go through all the fundamentals to get you up to speed so that you can go from only using Auto to controlling your image.
