Steve Brown has been producing educational films within the College for over 25 years. As well as the Construction of Houses and Building History & Conservation series produced within ERBE, he has also made many films that document and reinforce research and academic practice, public engagement films and learning objects for teaching and learning.
The College of Arts, Technology and Environment offers this in-house film production across all Schools. The following examples demonstrate the range of films and multimedia productions we can produce.
Examples
Keynote Lectures
Generally used for special or keynote public-facing lectures. A more polished product with high quality sound and picture, the presentation slides and other visual material are edited in afterwards and there is more control of the finished product than there would be with lecture capture.
Technical Demonstrations and Inductions
A technical demonstration or induction can be captured very effectively and used as an alternative to delivering the same session multiple times to different groups. It is also a permanent resource for revision. Recording is not usually done live but is best staged somewhat to allow multiple cameras, lighting and different angles.
- Woodworking Safety Induction
- Ground Investigation
- Ariel Atom
- Product Design Sketching
- Soil Coring
- Card Modelling
- Soil Testing Lab
- Total Station Angle Measurement
- Geological Cross Sections
‘Champion’ Films
These are more involved productions, usually part of a teaching project or a teaching linked research project, and can be made in many different ways. From a production perspective, this type of film takes longer to produce and is more involved for the academic.
- Frenchay Beeline
- Bristol Urban Lab Field Trip
- Separation of Cyclists and Pedestrians
- Bristol Rising
- Design Crit
- Event Capture
- UWE Sustainability Performance
- Technology Enhanced Learning
Production, Delivery and Turnaround
Films are shot and edited using professional audio and video equipment and can be delivered in multiple formats via Panopto, Blackboard, YouTube and Vimeo. Keynote lecture recordings are usually turned around in one week. Technical and champion films will take longer depending on their complexity.
