Resources for Digital Filmmakers

Here are some filmmaking resources we've collected to share with you. You probably have your own tips, tricks, and suggestions and your fellow filmmakers would love to hear about them. Visit the digital filmmaking forums and get a conversation started!

  1. Pick a topic and download the script, voice-over, graphics, and music tracks.
  2. Get creative. Shoot, edit, and upload your video.*
  3. Work with Howcast producers to create a fine cut and if your video is accepted, watch it go live across our distribution network.
  4. Repeat!

* Before you start shooting, check out our basic camera and editing software requirements.

Our Howcast videos are our "fun" work. We look forward to shooting them each week because of their creative requirements. It's an opportunity to actually do some filmmaking!
