What to Teach

        Teachers must be certified to teach Math or English but surprisingly, teachers do not have to have a certification to teach a video production class. Most textbooks for video production are not current because of the fast paced changes in technology. By allowing your students to gravitate to the job they feel most interested with will allow you to get the best results.
        Start with the basics of equipment and add more advanced skills later. Using basic format of vocabulary will allow you get started and not hinder the students from being successful. As the students master new skills, you can build on them with each project. It is also a great idea to start with basic camera operation and composition, as well. The Internet and hands-on practice are great ways to master tips and improve with each project. You will learn as you go. Take it one project at a time, slowly learning to add better shots, computer graphics and even video effects.
