Target Audience: Librarians who wish to deliver information about their libraries in a more dynamic format Learning Outcomes: 1. Participants will identify opportunities to turn static library information into a dynamic video. 2. Participants will be able to devise a plan for writing, filming, and editing a basic video project.
Conducting building tours, conveying basic policy information, and answering frequently asked questions can all be a repetitive drain on staff time. Libraries can get proactive with these and other common tasks by repackaging the information into dynamic and fun videos, which can be posted to the library's website and Facebook page. This program will help library staff identify opportunities for movie-making in their own institutions, and provide concrete solutions for creating high-quality videos on a shoestring budget. Duke Law's in-house videographer will break down the steps of writing, filming, and editing an informational video that will both engage and educate your viewers. Whether you're a total technophobe or a home-movie pro, you, too, can make a great video for your library.
