Learning video
Posted: July 26th, 2004, 2:52 pm
I've gradually learned over the last couple yeasr how important it is to have a magic videotape thatr promotes you well.
So today, I'm signing up for a video-editing program at the local community college. I'm going to get free access to their editing bays, on which I will do my own projects, as well as learning the skills, for only $110 (including textbook). And, of course, the time expended.
I'm also signing up for public-access cable programming. They say that with just two evening sessions, I can start:
*borrowing their cameras
*editing on their machines
...as long as I put together a program that they can broadcast.
The goal, of course, is just to get the best videotape I can that will market me as a magician.
Does anybody have any advice on this area of magic?
I've been asking around, and different people have wildly differing idaes about what makes a good videotape. Also, it's terribly time consuming to tape, edit, and package a promotional videtoape. But man is it essential!
