Have you ever wondered how movies are made? Or how our eyes process the images we see in the theater? The MOST can teach you everything you want to know about movies and more. Sessions are held at 11:00 a.m. – 12.:30 p.m. or 1:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. at the MOST, 500 South Franklin Street, Syracuse 13202. The Science of Moviemaking: Basic for Beginners will explore the science of film and educate participants about what the eye actually sees throughout a movie. Afterwards, learn all about how to use moviemaking software by editing pre-shot video clips and other basic video skills. After this session, home movies may never be the same again! We recommend our participants be ages 10 and up and those participating in the optional basic digital video editing have a fundamental knowledge of computing. This class is free with the regular museum admission. With the limited amount of space and only eight computer openings, please register by Thursday, July 30, 2009 with Kelly Gardner at kgardner@most.org or 425-9068 x 2141.
