Lockport Community Television offering training classes designed for teens

Lockport Community Television is offering summer video training classes designed for teens.  The classes are held at LCTV’s studio facilities at Kenan Center Arena Annex, 433 Locust Street in Lockport .
 
Two sessions are available: July 11-28 and August 8-25.  Classes meet from 9 AM – noon, Monday to Thursday for three consecutive weeks.  There are no classes on Fridays.
 
Classes are open to young people ages 13-18.
 
Students will learn the basics of studio television production, including use of a studio camera, computer graphics (Compix GenCG), and directing an in-studio program with multiple cameras.  Students will also work with portable camcorders, and computer non-linear editing with Final Cut Express.  Students will work in groups to make short video projects, which will be shown at a parents’ reception at the completion of the course.  A field trip will also be taken to WGRZ-TV (Ch. 2) in Buffalo .
 
The program fee is $75 per student.  No experience with computers or video equipment is necessary.  The program is open to students from any Western New York community or school district.
