Francisco gives a lesson on how to make a Music Video

On September 1, we are going to launch NY Video School, an online training academy for those who want to learn how to make a wide range of videos and learn video skills.

The site has been in the making for more than a year, with hundreds of video lessons on everything from shooting to editing to scripting to how to make a music video, and much more.

Here’s a sneak preview of one of the instructional videos.

Michael Rosenblum

For more than 30 years, Michael Rosenblum has been on the cutting edge of the digital video journalism revolution. During this time, he has lead a drive for video literacy, and the complete rethinking of how television is made and controlled. His work has included: The complete transitioning of The BBC's national network (UK) to a VJ-driven model, starting in 2002. The complete conversion of The Voice of America, the United State's Government's broadcasting agency, (and the largest broadcaster in the world), from short wave radio to television broadcasting and webcasting using the VJ paradigm (1998-present). The construction of NYT Television, a New York Times Company, and the largest producer of non-fiction television in the US. Rosenblum was both the founder and President of NYT TV, (all based on this paradigm (1996-1998). The President and Founder of Video News International, a global VJ-driven newsgathering company, with more than 100 journalists around the world. (1993-1996). Other clients include Spectrum News, Verizon and CBS News.

    Sounds promising, maybe Cliff and Laura could each highlight 2 or 3 things they learned from the site.

    I feel very lucky to have been one of the few to preview this site and BOY is it worth it! It provides useful information in a very user-friendly format for all skill levels. If you are at all interested in video-making at all, this high quality site is worth the time energy and money. You should do yourself a favor and take a look! :^)

    I’ve poured thru the lessons to make sure I was up to speed on my skills – I gleaned little nuances that I had been missing in making sure I was as up to date as possible when shooting for my clients – the quality of the instruction/information is top notch Michael 🙂
