Description

The cinematography workshop offers students grounding in the technical operation of cameras and lighting equipment and explores related conceptual issues. Attention is focused on control of the media through an understanding of framing, lighting, and film stock. Areas of concern include camera operations, film language, exposure, lighting, camera mounts, frame speed, filters, printing and the laboratory process. Classes include demonstrations and workshops, treatments, discussions and tutorials, review and critique.
