Your Instructor: Tracy Misner
I am so excited to share this program with Winston-Salem. I have been producing videos since 1993 and have been editing on Final Cut Pro since 1999! In 2009, I began teaching film and video at Alpharetta High School in Alpharetta, Georgia. My program was based on the principles of common business techniques brought into the classroom. The success we shared was nothing short of amazing. We won 32 Student Production Awards from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. I became Teacher of the Year from the Student Television Network. I also became and Apple Distinguished Educator in 2016.
But wait, there's more! The students succeeded at such a high level that many chose to start their own production companies. Some have gone on to YouTube fame. Others went into sports production, film, news and content creation. The Program:We have partnered up with Mixxer Makerspace right here in Winston-Salem to bring you a class that will give you hands-on experiences in story writing, shot composition, film production, editing, content creation, audio production and yes, monetization.
