    My school had a TV production class that went into a lot of what you’re talking about. Stuff like setting up multiple cameras for an interview/news-type show, following the action while maintaining a sense of the big picture with a single camera at a sporting event, that sort of thing. Even had a workstation with shiny new digital editing software and a DVD burner so you didn’t have to shuffle VHS tapes (or their various forms) around.

    I’d love to see an updated version of this where they also get into privacy, safety and bullying/harassment since those don’t tend to be the first things a kid will think about when installing the video app of the day. Let them know what they’re giving up and then teach the methods to do it right.
