Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

The most important aim of the course is to enable students to perform basic digital productions and to process their productions in a digital environment to create the meaning they want.

In this context, in this course, it is aimed to try the thinking practice necessary to visualize a theme, to give basic production information, and then to teach how to use fiction in a way that creates meaning.

Course Content:

The "Digital Production and Editing" course aims to teach the basic methods of digital photography and video production. Lesson; It contains theoretical and practical information about which elements should be considered in the pre-production, production and final production stages to create motion digital images. Composition rules, basic production information, visual language expression forms, dramaturgy, cinema terms, basic principles and methods of editing are covered in the course. Along with all this, how the editing and final production stages of a basic production are done on the "Adobe Premiere" and "Adobe After Effects" programs are handled in a practical way.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Learns to do digital production and to prepare for this production.
2) Understands the effects of camera movements, camera angles, scales and plans on creating meaning and uses them in the productions he/she produces.
3) Creatively uses the rules of composition to create a visual language.
4) Comprehends the importance of editing in visual fields such as cinema and advertisement.
5) Comprehends the importance of fiction in creating a style, a form and a meaning.
6) Can make digital editing using "Adobe Premiere" and "Adobe After Effects" programs, produce motion graphics and visual effects within his plan and use them in his project.
7) By taking responsibility until the end of the project he/she produces, he/she gains the ability to make choices and express himself/herself with the visual language he/she creates.
8) Gains knowledge about where and how he/she can exhibit his/her works.
