In this class, students will learn the functions, layout and operation
of the Sony FS7. They’ll then get real-world, HANDS-on experience by
shooting a project out in the field.Each month, the class will focus
on a different genre, from documentary to live music or narrative
film.

OPEN SIGNAL IS A SAFE SPACE
Open Signal is committed to providing an inclusive and welcoming
environment for the community. Open Signal does not and will not
discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion (creed), gender,
gender expression, age, national origin (ancestry), disability,
marital status, sexual orientation, or military status, in any of its
activities or operations, and we ask that you do the same when you
attend our workshops and events.
Open Signal is fully wheelchair-accessible. Reasonable accommodations
may be made upon request.
EQUIPMENT CERTIFICATION
Open Signal workshops grant certification on the equipment and
software taught in the course unless otherwise noted.
Our workshops and equipment are made available to the community at an
affordable rate because we want to amplify your voice on our public
access cable channels. Join our community of media-makers! We ask that
you submit work regularly in exchange for the free use of Open Signal
equipment and studios.
Workshops participants must attend ALL workshop sessions order to
receive certification. No make-up sessions will be allowed except in
cases of emergency. All certified students must complete a brief New
Producer Orientation (NPO) before they are given access to our
equipment. Students under the age of 18 will need to complete an NPO
in the presence of their parent or guardian in order to check out
equipment from Open Signal.
