Cinematography Workshop offers students grounding in the technical operation of cameras and lighting equipment, and also explores related conceptual approaches. Attention is focused on the control of the media through an understanding of framing, lighting, film stock and professional video formats. Areas of study include camera operations, film language, exposure, lighting, camera mounts, frame speed, filters, printing, the laboratory process and, increasingly, high-definition video production processes. Classes include demonstrations and workshops, discussions and tutorials, reviews and critiques.
