Dear CCS Community Video Maker,
You are cordially invited to attend a group workshop on camera skills on Saturday 14th May, with the Durban Community Video Collective (DCVC). This workshop will build on previous DCVC trainings; it is expected that participants have a basic knowledge of how to operate a camera. The workshop will allow you to develop your camera operating ability. We will develop our skills in using shot types, natural light, audio set‑up, white‑balance and manual focus.
The workshop will be divided in 2 sessions and will involve both theory and practical exercises. We will argue that audiovisual images can be understood as a language. Everything you see and hear has meaning in all types of video and film, and therefore it is important to understand the meaning of your camerawork. All group exercises will be recorded and reviewed collectively. We will be handling handycams as well as a semi‑professional broadcast quality HDV video camera!
Joining us will be Alex Vailati (to be confirmed) from Italy, who has experience of using participatory video for community development and research in South Africa. He is currently working on a documentary film in Durban and is happy to share his skills and experience.
Jochem Smit (to be confirmed) will also join the workshop to assist in the camera handling exercises. He has a background in film studies and visual ethnography and is currently working on several commercial film projects. The workshop will a hands‑on and interactive experience. Anyone who would like to increase their knowledge on camera handling and video production should attend this workshop.
The workshop is FERE, buyt please bring your own lunch and note that there are NO reimbursements for travel expenses.
