New photographers hesitate the moment they switch their cameras over to video. The menus change, the settings feel unfamiliar, and the result often looks shaky, blurry, or flat. This workshop removes the confusion and teaches a simple, repeatable approach to shooting clean, modern video with the camera you already have.
In this hands-on session, we’ll walk through the essential concepts that actually matter — frame rates, shutter settings, sound, stabilization, and how to shoot usable sequences. No technical overwhelm. No theory for theory’s sake. Just practical skills that make your video look intentional and professional.
You’ll learn:
Frame Rates That Matter – What to use and why
Shutter Angle / Shutter Speed – Explained clearly, without jargon
Audio Basics – Clean, clear sound that doesn’t ruin your footage
Stabilization Techniques – How to hold and move the camera smoothly
Shooting Sequences – Wide → Medium → Close → Detail → Action for easy edits
This workshop is hands-on. You’ll practice each concept with your own camera and walk away knowing how to record video confidently — not just hope it works.
Cost: $99 before class begins
Official Sign Up: https://matteblackcamerarentals.com/phoenix-photography-classes-and-events/
What to Bring:
Camera with video capability (DSLR or mirrorless)
Charged battery and memory card
Optional: External microphone (if you have one)
Comfortable shoes — we’ll be moving and shooting
By the end of this workshop, you’ll understand how to shoot clean, usable video consistently — and how to think like a hybrid shooter instead of a still photographer guessing.
Class begins promptly at 10:00 AM. Please arrive around 9:30 AM to check in and get set up before we begin.
