Revolutionary greetings to everyone and welcome to our foundation for education via innovative visual means. Here we will provide the valuable resources and information necessary to create video media designed to teach the youth and the people abroad of the world sorrounding them. Our hopes are that through these alternate yet potentially entertaining methods more individuals will awaken from their slumber regarding vital issues currently inflicting humanity.

Consider this the best place to learn, educate, and share information and communicate with other like-minded people and friends. Receive feedback and leave feedback, find help for your own works as a filmmaker or other, all in one place.

Below you will find a guide to the basics to understanding this beautiful style and art of film and how anyone with the right motives and dedication can actively take place in the same genre of education through video production:

The first step towards reaching awareness and raising it among others will be for you to question what the average person may perhaps perceive as irrelevant or a non-issue. What exactly do the food and liquids that I consume on a daily basis actually contain inside them? Why do they contain these materials, chemicals, or ingredients? Who really was Christopher Columbus and what did he do? These and infinite other questions are what will lead you to first discovering what subject matter you will likely include in your future work as you become involved in the area of video production.

The second step is to present this information or subject in the most appealing and entertaining matter to the viewer as possible. After all, how many people in the general public or even those amongst your friends and family are willing to sit attentively as he/she listens to a speech attached to an hour of scrolling text? To do this you will need to offer this education through a medium that they may already be familiar with or more likely to notice if presented to them. This is exactly where film, music, and photos will naturally come into place. The preferred method would be to create the film and accompanying media from scratch yourself, however this is not an option available to everyone. In the beginning it would be suggested to make your first attempt at this form of education using the appropriate song and clips found while reseaching your chosen subject. This may include but is not limited to interviews, peformances, images, archive footage, and other selected works. If you choose to utilize small portions of copyrighted motion pictures such as for example "Malcolm X" then please be sure the resulting video is not being sold or distributed in stores. It would likely spawn legal issues here in Amerika. Custom animation and images that are combined with video effects are also an excellent choice for videos. Any artists who find their skill in drawing or painting can easily use this to their advantage as well as many others have.

The third step involves editing and joining together all of the compiled media to produce a cohesive thought provoking 'educational' video. One or more video editing software program(s) will be needed to achieve this feat. For beginners Windows Movie Maker will be sufficient enough but as you progress further then programs such as Sony Vegas and Adobe Premiere should be considered. Multiple programs can be used also if you find this to be easier or essential in creating the desired video(s).

Like with any good paper or book you will have to try and feature an attention grabbing introduction, informative yet intriguing body, and a satisfying conclusion that leaves the viewer with a feeling of completion while still wishing for more. Make sure that the point of the video was well made and told though not at all redundant. If the first installment is not what you wished for then don't worry, I can wholeheartedly promise you it will only become better with each subsequent addition.
