INTRODUCTION TO ONLINE MOVIEMAKING UTILIZING SITES LIKE YOUTUBE AND OTHERS
from acclaimed director/producer/editor Joel Vetsch, who has appeared on CNN many times, and had films shown on TV in Germany and on the BBC in the UK - ALL with a consumer grade camera.
Joel Vetsch has produced over 300 online videos with no film crew, which have been featured on CNN.com, Yahoo.com, Myspace.com, and have been viewed in total over a million times.
Example: Following are two videos shot with an affordable Canon Powershot, just a digital camera with decent video. I believe we shot it on a 320 x 240 setting.
Here is a spontaneous video I shot about a hovercraft experiment at a local college back home in Montana. This video has been shown on TV on the BBC in the UK, and over in Germany on two channels. It has also been featured on Myspace and most recently CNN.com. This video alone has been seen well over 600,000 times in total. over 34,000 times alone yesterday on CNN.com!

Here is a music video I made for Hiphoppopatamus Vs. Rhymenocerous by Flight of the Conchords. I just lip synched entire song, and played both Bret and Jemaine in the video, cutting together two camera shots. The tripod was simply set inside of a van, with the door open, that drove beside me as I walked.

I would like to teach you how to:
1) Shoot a great looking video with no "film crew" - even with your low grade digital camera
2) Edit your footage together in an eye-catching way using a standard program already on your computer (i Movie or Windows Movie Maker)
3) Upload your final video to YouTube and get hits
