Advanced Post-Production: Prime Time*

40-3424D

This course addresses post-production issues relating to editing comedy projects as well as the departmental show. The student will learn to work with a team, e.g., a producer, a director, and a writer, in a post-production atmosphere. Emphasis will be on producing finished videotape, with the content to be determined by the editor client relationship and weekly edit sessions with deadlines. Practical tutorials will focus on advanced editing techniques, styles, and strategies for editing on a non-linear system. Classroom time is spent working with your assigned team to edit and review the edit. Critical skills will be developed through in-class critiques. Critique will take place while the student's work is on the non-linear system so that we may take advantage of the non-linear system's unique capabilities for multiple versions of the edit in order to develop individual style of editing.
