Job Description
Digital Video and Editing. The equipment we use is centered on the Apple Macintosh system using the following programs: Media 100 On-line, Adobe After Effects, and Quicktime. You must have experience in this field!Friday Night Flix: To give you an idea of what we use this equipment for at Camp Towanda here are the origins of video of our camp. Although Camp Towanda is not strictly religious we do hold a Friday evening service, which is more of a reflection on the week gone by, and friendship. It is a tradition at the end of services to show a 10-15 minute highlight video of the week gone by....Friday Night Flix (FNF for short). The kids get really excited for FNF and although we cant give 400 kids the starring role, we do try to spread it out over the 8 weeks so as many kids as possible get into the show. NOTE: We use the footage from FNF to produce a 1hr Summer Highlight Video at the end of camp and aim to get a close up shot of every kid at least once!Remember, our humor and content MUST be aimed at the children and it better be appropriate for them. We don’t make fun of anyone.Responsibilities:Your position is one of an entire production crew!!!!! You are the writer, cameraperson, director, producer, lighting, sound, gaffer, grips.....everything....and that's just production. You will be in control of postproduction. Editing, special effects, titles, soundtrack!1) To video all special events, walk around camp and shoot random footage, use initiative to produce small skits/short weekly stories or a short movie. (There will be someone to shoot footage of events during your time off).2) To be creative in editing the FNF program using titles, special effects, music, etc. The final product must be finished in time to be viewed by the Head of Media and edited if necessary.3) Work groups will be held for the kids to contribute to FNF scripting/producing a short movie. They will not be permitted to use the computer.4) There is a new section on our web site containing quicktime movies. You will need to compress FNF to a quicktime move and upload to the web site. FNF may need to be split into 3 parts. This whole process will be explained if necessary.5) In addition to the above. There is often a need to create promotional/educational/orientation material for the camp.Job Criteria
