Tutorial 4 & 5 - Video Production Session

Provide a brief summary of the services offered by You Tube. Information can be drawn from the week five tutorial handout.

Youtube is a website where users can upload, view and share videos. Giving us all an opportunity to unleash our creative genius and empowering people to become "broadcasters of tomorrow".
Being registered on You Tube means that you can upload, watch and share all videos, whereas being unregistered limits users to only watching videos and this may be restricted depending on content. Youtube was purchased by google in 2006 and is a nonprofit website


Provide a brief account (1-2 paragraphs) on how the use of planning (storyboarding) and scripting aided your group's shortfilm.

Firstly we were discussing what the film would be about. When we had decided on the topic, we were brainstorming on possible shots and drew them into the storyboard.
The storyboard was helpful because we knew what we were looking for and how the shortfilm would evolve. It was good getting ideas first and thinking about what shots we would take.
In the end, the film was getting a little different from the storyboard, because some ideas were too complicated for both our skills and the little camera.
