Video is a medium that can used to create anything from short documentaries to personal statements, video art, PSAs or instructional videos. . Consider a video editing workshop to introduce your department, faculty or students to the skills they need to develop this mode of communication & content creation.
Not only does the library provide this technical training, but a wide variety of Video editing software is freely available in the Library's 3rd floor studios or via campus V-lab( mycloud.gatech.edu) . Some software examples: Davinci Resolve (preferred), IMovie, Adobe products.
Video cameras, Tripods ,Green Screen kits and various accessories for these projects are available for check out at the Gadgets Desk. They can be reserved in advance for individuals or classes.-
Video editing workshops should be scheduled in advance- Please allow a minimum of two weeks’ notice with instructors. This allows us time to tailor a workshop for a particular audience or for course content and assignments. Classes may be requested with shorter notice, but be advised we may not be able to fulfill your request and learning objectives for the session may be limited. Your input is vital in workshop development process.
It can be helpful in these sorts of workshops to have students come with footage already shot or some video assets gathered.
Video editing workshops are generally held in Classroom 2130 or online
