How to Light, Frame, and Shoot Video for the Web

Stjepan's conference-opening session, "How to Light, Frame, and Shoot Video for the Web," will provide a targeted overview of key elements of web video production that distinguish the production process for online video from broadcast and producing for DVD. While some of the time-tested principles of traditional video production still apply, online video is really a world of its own, and it’s best to begin with basics. This session walks you through key elements of online video production that distinguish it from producing for other media, including composition, lighting, and more. This session provides expert tips on how to shoot HD video that’s effective for the web.

How to Brand Your Online Video Productions

"How to Brand Your Online Video Productions" examines both the reasons for building branding into online commercial videos and the best ways to do it. Online video is a powerful marketing tool, and effective and consistent marketing demands effective branding that’s consistently and strategically applied. And, of course, there’s much more to branding than slapping on a logo “bug”; it means focusing on key elements of a company’s identity and producing work that reflects it accurately and promotes it effectively, whether subtly or overtly. Attendees will leave this session knowing how to incorporate their company’s or their client’s brand identity into every step of the production process, and every aspect of their production style.
