DESCRIPTION
With social media, you have the power to produce your own videos to develop your comedic voice, showcase your acting to casting directors and reps, or become an independent creator. Whether you’re creating for YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok, it’s easier than ever to take on the roles of producer, writer, and editor - all in one! But knowing where to start can sometimes be overwhelming.
Over this 6 week course, I will take you through practical steps to write, shoot, and edit a comedy video that showcases your talents, gives your confidence a boost, and jumpstarts your online comedy portfolio.
This course is for anyone who wants to write, create, and star in their own content - no prior experience necessary! All you need is a smartphone, a tripod, and basic editing software such as iMovie. (There are other free programs you can find online). You will get a crash course in comedic structure, work your idea out in a virtual writers room, and get writing, performance, and editing feedback from the instructor.
At the end of six weeks, you will come out with a polished video you can proudly upload into the virtual world, and the power to continue making quality videos on your own.
