Social Justice Documentary Production for Nonprofits

Cost: $300

While anyone can sign up for this course, the class is primarily designed for nonprofit staff members, who are primarily responsible for their organization's mission content, whether for social media, web presence, or fundraising purposes. Participants will learn how to tell their organization's story meaningfully and with visual impact.

The class will introduce participants to screen language and sequencing and provide hands-on experience with digital video cameras and professional editing systems.

Participants will work to produce 3 to 4-minute short videos about their local nonprofit organization in the Seattle area.

The class takes place on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 9:30 am to 12 noon. Eight classes from October 6th through October 29th.

While this is a beginner class, basic knowledge of the Apple operating system and computers is recommended.

This workshop's instructor is teaching artist Sam Hampton, PhD. Sam is the executive director of the Social Justice Film Institute and an award-winning documentary filmmaker (hamptonfilms.com).

* This workshop is limited to 12 participants. Please register early to reserve a spot.
