Pentimenti is pleased to partner with the Polsky Center to host another Videography Workshop for Entrepreneurs.

Whether you need video of your product, team, or for your Instagram channel, join us for an intensive, two day crash course on the essentials of video production. Through illustrative examples from a wide range of media and hands-on exercises, this class will leverage concepts from documentary filmmaking to help participants create dynamic product and marketing videos, learn how to better shoot footage on a smartphone, and expand their visual identity with cinematic techniques.

The curriculum will cover the essential stages of the production process, with the first day devoted to cinematography and the second day focused on editing. Exercises involve: choreographing and shooting an interview; creating and editing a project in Adobe Premiere; and integrating stock footage and music. All experience levels welcome.

Polsky is excited to present this workshop in partnership with the Hyde Park Art Center and Pentimenti Productions, a documentary production company with a mission to make films about art and artists.
