Grade: 9th Subject: Audio Video Technology & Film Topic: Broadcast Video Productions

Objective:

• Students will understand the basics of broadcast video productions, including the equipment used, roles within a production team, and the process of creating a broadcast video.

• Students will demonstrate their understanding by creating a short broadcast video segment.

Materials:

• Whiteboard or projector

• Laptop or computer with video editing software

• Video camera or smartphone with video recording capabilities

• Microphone

• Tripod (optional)

• Broadcast video production equipment (if available)

Anticipatory Set:

• Show students a short video segment from a professional broadcast production, highlighting the different roles within the production team and the equipment used.

• Engage students in a brief discussion about the impact of broadcast video productions on society and the importance of understanding the process behind it.

Direct Instruction:

1. Input:

• Explain to students the different components of a broadcast video production, including pre-production, production, and post-production.

• Discuss the various roles within a production team, such as director, producer, camera operator, audio technician, and editor.

• Introduce the equipment commonly used in broadcast video productions, such as video cameras, microphones, lighting equipment, and video editing software.

2. Modeling:

• Demonstrate the process of creating a broadcast video by providing a step-by-step explanation: a. Pre-production: Discuss the importance of planning, scriptwriting, storyboarding, and preparing the necessary equipment. b. Production: Explain the techniques for capturing high-quality video and audio, including framing, composition, lighting, and sound recording. c. Post-production: Show students how to import the recorded footage into video editing software, edit the video, add transitions, titles, and audio enhancements.

3. Check for Understanding:

• Ask students questions to evaluate their understanding of the input and modeling, such as: a. What are the three main components of a broadcast video production? b. Name two roles within a production team and briefly describe their responsibilities. c. What are some techniques for capturing high-quality video and audio?

Guided Practice:

• Divide students into small groups and assign each group a specific role within a production team (e.g., director, camera operator, audio technician).

• Provide each group with a scenario and ask them to plan, record, and edit a short broadcast video segment based on the given scenario.

• Circulate among the groups to provide guidance, answer questions, and ensure they are following the correct process.

Closure:

• Lead a class discussion to review the key concepts covered in the lesson, emphasizing the importance of teamwork, planning, and attention to detail in broadcast video productions.

• Discuss the challenges students faced during the guided practice and how they overcame them.

Independent Practice:

• Assign students to create an individual broadcast video segment, incorporating the techniques and concepts learned in the lesson.

• Provide a rubric or set of criteria for students to follow when creating their video segment.

• Allow students sufficient time to plan, record, and edit their videos.

• Have students present their video segments to the class, followed by a brief feedback session.

Note: The duration and specific activities within each section of the lesson plan can be adjusted based on the available class time and resources.
