Streetfilms University: How We Make Effective Films from Streetfilms on Vimeo.
Are you an aspiring filmmaker looking to cut your teeth in the documentary world? Oh, and you are also a big fan of walking, biking and transit? Well, pop some popcorn and grab a notebook, because StreetFilms has a great free tutorial on how to make a fantastic transportation video.
I can’t really put into words just how effective a good video is as a tool to explain a complicated transportation topic in an easily-accessible way. And if you want help of any kind making one, be sure to get in touch with us.

Lots of good advice for any documentary film maker in this video. It doesn’t replace getting out there with your camera and shooting some footage, editing it and then showing it to your friends for review, but it will save you a lot of mis-steps.
Also be sure to “clap” loudly at the beginning of filming so you have a marker to align the sound with the video. (that’s the other use of those “clap” boards besides having a sign with which take it is.)
