Workshop participants will create actual videos for Albany’s cable channel, KALB (Comcast 33) and will get a brief tour of KALB facilities.

Participants should come with suggestions for making a video about:

• a local public person (business owner, public servant, teacher, etc.)
• a local private person (your grandmother, a colorful neighbor, etc.)
• a local business (store front, home office, service provider, freelancer, etc.)
• a local institution (nonprofit organization, business network, sports team, etc.)

The workshop will first introduce the idea of movie making in Albany, showing several examples of videos that have already been produced.

The workshop will then go on to shoot a sample short video that profiles a local personality, using the participants in the production.

Finally, workshop participants will present their ideas for videos for KALB and will solicit the support of others in the workshop to become part of the team that will produce their video. Everyone can volunteer for one or more projects to get involved in, learning the elements of video production through making actual video movies.

The ultimate goal is for a number of short video projects to be born in this workshop and then to be produced over the next several months. Check-ins on the progress of the projects will occur during the next two or three monthly workshops, and the finished videos will be offered for cable-cast in the Fall.

Participants are invited to bring to the workshop any portable video and audio equipment that they would like to use for making their movie. They can show others how to use the equipment, or they can learn how to use the equipment themselves.
