Support for Video Shooters:

The Digital Shootout has a lot to offer the underwater videographer. We will be presenting seminars on shooting techniques as well as video editing to help you create high quality videos of your dive vacations. We will also be holding a contest for the best video shot during the week. So bring your underwater video system to the Digital Shootout and join us in the fun.

Underwater Shooting
Technique Seminars:

Underwater video is easy. In fact it can be too easy. Anyone can hit the record button and fill a tape with underwater video, but how do you replace quantity with quality? Richard Todd will teach you the essential skills of underwater video. Learn the art of shot selection. Make sure you get all the right shots needed to make a complete video. We'll work on transition shots and techniques to give your work a professional look. This course is geared toward teaching you how to capture the underwater world so that you have useable clips to create a larger body of work. Take your video to the next level.

Video Editing Seminars:

Only a few years ago, digital video editing systems with any power
would run you tens of thousands of dollars. Now an investment of two
thousand will build a powerful editing studio in your own home. Screenwriter, techno guru, and Adobe staffer Daniel Brown will introduce you to the power of filmmaking. From connecting the camera to correcting the color, Daniel will walk you through the steps of creating your own movie masterpiece. With an amazing ability to keep you laughing all the way, Daniel will also cut out the tech and plop the basics of video editing right into your lap. Daniel will also be available for questions after each session.
