Book description
Nearly every DLSR camera available today also shoots beautiful
high-definition video. YouTube and Facebook are bursting with
user-generated content as people share their memories and
travels. Whether it's highlights from a great vacation, the
kids' soccer game, or family gatherings, everyone wants to create
compelling video to document it. While DSLR cameras are quite
capable of shooting video, for many, their foray into video
shooting can be frustrating. Footage tends to be dark and out of
focus and suffers from camera shake and bad audio.
In Creating DSLR Video: From Snapshots to Great Shots,
photographer and video expert Rich Harrington demystifies the
process and teaches a solid foundation for capturing great video.
Whether readers have been dabbling in video already or have never
even used that mode on their camera, they will learn how to go from
capturing mediocre video to creating compelling footage--and all
the steps in between!
Readers will also learn the essentials of video editing and
publishing to the web; how to make the most of their existing
equipment; affordable options to improve video capture; and much
more! To supplement the book, readers will gain sample videos that
further demonstrate the techniques presented in the book.
