Course Objectives Today video is an integral part of visual communication design and the post-production process is increasingly becoming the bridge between these two areas. Since video making practice ends in this now digitally controlled environment, a design student has to learn the tools and have a control over the whole process.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Will be able to classify the whole post production process.
  • Will be able to apply types of post production as video demos.
  • Will be able to identify the necessary steps in the making of 2D effects for a finished video.
  • Will be able to apply basic animation skills to create a video in 2D environment.
  • Will be able to process an ungraded video footage with basic skills of color grading.
Course Description This course aims to supply the primarily practical tools to contextualize the post production techniques.
