The Video Coach Series begins with the "Shooter's Guide," a thorough, easy-to-follow DVD which will become a "must-have" tool for Broadcast Journalism teachers across the nation. The disc breaks down individual skills and "best practices" so teachers can better prepare their students for the shooting challenges they will face everyday in the field. Examples of what works, what doesn't, and how shooters can improve their work instantly by following simple techniques--that is what this 50 minute, one-of-a-kind DVD offers. It is teacher-friendly, and student-friendly. The Shooter's Guide Volume 1 is divided into 5 chapters, Chapter 1: Essential Equipment, Chapter 2: Wide-Medium-Tight, Chapter 3: Sequences, Chapter 4: Composition, Chapter 5: Top 10 Tips. Each chapter has an optional quiz to help reemphasize important concepts and a "Presentation Mode" that contains stills of every visual example without audio to teach by. As a bonus, ten lesson plans are provided to help teachers reinforce the training contained on the "Shooter's Guide."
