The class was awesome! We recorded songs using an electric Roland drum kit, and midi controllers that triggered the software instruments within Logic Studio Pro.  The first 2 days were spent learning Logic, recording our songs, using loops, and mixing down our songs.  When the songs were complete, we got to learn camera operation with the new Sony Z5U cameras. After learning how to use the cameras we into “production” and shot music videos to go along with the songs we recorded.  The footage the students shot was amazing and in some cases,  down right hilarious.  To complete the week  we took the footage back to the studio and taught the students how to edit their music videos with Final Cut Pro.  We topped it off by teaching them how to author DVD’s with DVD Studio Pro. The end result was amazing!  We screened all the student projects for family and friends.  Everyone was blown away!  I had a blast watching students create such amazing projects in such a short amount of time.  I don’t think there is anywhere else in the world where you can learn how to write and record a professional song, go out and shoot a music video with Sony video gear, come back and learn how to edit your video with Final Cut Pro, and then author a DVD with DVD Studio Pro all within one week’s time.  Here are some of the videos from the class please watch.

Sincerely,

Travis Schlafmann

Come to DMA Film Camp this summer! Learn how to shoot film on HD cameras, record and edit audio samples, mix the video and audio together, and produce a complete music video!

The band Coldplay continues to come out with innovative and very creative music videos. Almost everyone can remember the music video created for their song “The Scientist” in 2003. This movie was very interesting since the entire movie appeared to be shot in reverse. The music video won three MTV music awards for the video’s reverse narrative effect. 

One of Coldplay’s newest music singles is “Life in Technicolor ii”. This is such an entertaining and fun music video. This is just another example of what you can do with your film skills and some good creativity. Get inspired, and we’ll see you at DMA Film Camp this summer!
