Tutorials Four & Five: video production

Tutorials Four and Five involved planning, producing and editing a 30 second film. The remit was ‘Problem Solving’ and the video you see here entitled The Great Getaway is the result. I set up a YouTube account and the video was posted here for the world to see!!!

YouTube is website that allows people to upload and share their video clips with an online community. Videos can range from being informative to fun and YouTube can be linked through other websites, blogs, email and mobile phones. There is no requirement to be a YouTube member to view videos but people must sign up to the site if they want to share their own video clips online.


Storyboarding helped the group to get our ideas down visually to form the basis of our story about problem-solving. By doing this we were able to see what shots would be needed to best tell the story in the limited timeframe. The storyboard also gave us an idea about what props we needed e.g. a bike, car, keys and lightbulb. Scripting provided additional information to the storyboard in detailing what was expected at each stage from the actors and the people behind-the-scenes.
