CUE 2008: "My Hero Media Arts Curriculum and Short Film Festival" by Wendy Millette and Christopher Cain

The My Hero Project is now accepting entries into their short film festival (http://www.myhero.com/filmfestival) and virtual gallery (http://www.myhero.com/gallery).

Suggestions for improving video interest:
  • Use a cut-away (show video of something else in the room)
  • Use a B-roll (a video of something off-site from the video)
  • Use alternative directionality of shots, a reversal (e.g., shoot the interviewee and interviewer simultaneously)
Suggestions for improving audio production:
  • Post-production, add voice-overs, music, sound effects
