Introduction to Screenwriting
 
Aesthetics of Editing
Registration is required for this offering (below).
Description:
This 3-hour workshop is designed to help editors think beyond the keyboard shortcut and explore the more artistic side of editing. We will look at documentary editing – cutting interviews and supporting those interviews with b-roll. This is a lecture-style class, and we will work through multiple examples together, leaving ample time for questions at the end.
 
This workshop will cover how to:
- Isolate good sound bites and selects from longer interviews
- Organize interviews to best tell your story
- Trim out pauses and flubs
- Rearrange interviews within your sequence
- Smooth-out tough edits
- Cut in b-roll to support your story
- Pace your story
Presented as a Lecture-Style Workshop:
Affordable workshops designed to introduce a subject quickly and efficiently. Students can take notes from the instructor's projected computer screen, and/or bring their own computer to follow along.
Who Should Take This:
Participants should have a good working knowledge of non-linear editing programs such as Final Cut Pro. However, the focus of this class is artistic rather than technical – editors and non-editors are both most welcome.
Instructor:
Energetic and passionate about all things video, Ethan Benninger works by day as an editor for People Productions in Boulder. He has worked with both national and international clients such as ABC Family, GE, The American Red Cross, Papa John's Pizza and The Food Network. Ethan’s projects include documentaries, TV spots, and everything in between. In addition to being an Apple Certified Pro on multiple applications within Final Cut Studio, he is also an Apple Certified Final Cut Pro Trainer, and teaches at the Art Institute of Colorado in downtown Denver.

2510 47th Street, Suite 202, Boulder, CO  80301
If you've never been to the BDA Studio before, we encourage you to leave a few minutes early to give yourself a little extra time to find it. The BDA Studio is located just off 47th Street, between Pearl and Valmont. 47th Street is the frontage road on the east side of Foothills Parkway, that parallels Foothills Parkway. Look for a white and green stucco-front, 2-story building on 47th Street about halfway between Pearl and Valmont. The BDA Studio is located above Alpine Sports; there is plenty of parking in front of the building. Enter through the door on the South side of the building (where you will see BDA Studio signage). The studio is located on the second floor in Suite 202, right at the top of the stairs. The Google map will get you pretty close, but is not entirely accurate; so please use the above description to be sure you make it the rest of the way!
