Video Abstractions: Patterns in the Natural and Built Environment (Part 1)

Video Abstractions: Patterns in the Natural and Built Environment (2 parts)
A pelican splashes into the marsh and the reflected outline of a cityscape shimmers in a nearby puddle. Crissy Field is a place on the edge—a place where the city meets the bay and the urban landscape meets the natural world. In this workshop, you will make use of this unique setting to experiment with abstract patterns of movement using video equipment. In the first session, you will learn to use our digital camcorders and go into the field to shoot your footage. In the second session, you will learn to edit your work on the computer, experimenting with titling, sound, and special effects. Take home a VHS tape of your completed work. You must be familiar with basic computer operations such as browsing and file-saving.
Two Sundays, February 1 & 8; 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Fee: $35 per person*
