  • C.S.A. (Confederate States of America)

    On YouTube in 9 installments, the first in linked below.  A mockumentary of sorts and one of the inspirations for this project.  The idea is simple: in an alternative 2004 reality where the had South won the Civil War, a documentary is made about the Civil War.  The film explores what American society would look like and how it would have approached pivotal events in its History differently.  Satire abounds.
     
    Here is a link to the full show, not sure if the resolution is as good as the separate installments:

  • "Respect the Process"

    Contains two interesting videos on editing, the first is more basic, the second is very interesting, if a little advanced.  Notice how much emphasis both speakers put on sound and the sound track.  The emphasis the second speaker puts on pacing during the operating room segment is also really good!

  • Desktop Documentaries

    A helpful website with lots of great articles to get you started.  This link goes to the video editing page, but also look at their script-writing page and others.  Contains a link to a Vimeo tutorial on basic video editing that applies to all software.
