For the last few years there has been an annual video workshop. These successful workshops were run in South Wales by Antonia and Andy Freem, and the Forest of Dean by Paul Taylor, but this year there won?t be one,
unless we have a virtual/online one.I?m working on the script for the second film in the series, My Caving Videos: How I Make ?Em. It is based on the 5 phases of film production and I?m mulling over the idea of uploading it to UKC, perhaps one chapter every fortnight. The aim would be to hopefully stimulate discussion amongst videographers and budding videographers, and be a sort of online workshop. I would then like to incorporate as many different people?s ideas as possible into the final version of the script.
It would be fantastic if the video, when it?s finally made, could be illustrated with, not just my own clips, but with video taken by a range of other people so it becomes an online collaborative project showing a range of styles and techniques.
If this is successful then my proposal for a second online workshop is to look at how films entered in competitions are judged, perhaps leading to an online video competition. As well as judged 1st, 2nd and 3rd places we could peer review each others work and see if we agree with the judge(s) decision, or at least understand how the decision was arrived at. It would be great to have a best newcomer award too.
Before I stick my head above the parapet, is anyone interested? To register your interest please either message me and/or give this post a like. Unfortunately if there?s no interest then it probably won?t stop me making the film. :-\
