Make great video trailers of your work

Here are a couple of good examples of trailers and behind-the-scenes videos of other people's work:

SONGBIRD: a virtual moment of extinction / TRAILER from AniDox on Vimeo.

MaKey MaKey - An Invention Kit for Everyone from Makey Makey on Vimeo.

Some simple tips for your own videos: START documenting NOW...

1. Set up a Google Drive folder and EVERY week... add to it! Include:

- Stills of your work in progress

- Behind the scenes video and/or stills (photos): not only your work, what you need is people reacting to your work (your peer's facial expressions for example) and people using/interacting with your work).

- 'Hero' shots of your work: eg video or photos of your work as the central focus/main character

2. Get familiar with these types of shots (you will need many types of shots for a great edit)

I'll share tips and more videos soon and in Semester Two I'll run a hands on workshop - those of you stuck outside of the country right now, you won't miss out!
