You may start the exam with a presentation of around 5 minutes. Subjects could be: film language, dramaturgy, genre, the process from script to finished film or the technologies you have used.
After the presentation there is a discussion about your film, and the exam itself stops after 25 minutes in all. The exam is purely individual.
The course is an introduction to video production. Students will be instructed
in how to produce a short narrative film.
The course is a combination of two two-hour long lectures on video production, script writing, and the language
of film and television and of two hands-on workshops. The first of these introduces
students to the video department and its facilities, instruction in recording equipment
(DVCam, tripod, light, etc) and a practical exercise in recording. The second
workshop will offer instruction in digital editing and all the facilities in
the Avid suites, e.g. digitalisation, transitions, sound editing, master-to-tape
and compression of video for the Internet.
Literature for the course will be presented during the first session.
The students following this course will be asked to produce a three-minute narrative
film, which will be graded using the Danish 7 point scale. The due date for
the film is April the 27th 2010.
There will be an examination of 30 minutes for each student, where the film will
be discussed.
The value of the exam is 5 ECTS.
