The Cradle Of The Renaissance Florence was the site of incredible activity in art, architecture, literature, and philosophy, triggering the advent of the
Renaissance for the Western world. From the dome that Brunelleschi created for the Santa Maria del Fiore to the works of Michelangelo, Cellini, da
Vinci, Ghiberti, Botticelli, and de Medici, Florence's culture flourished. Historic advances in the arts transformed city into living museum.

It is based on exploring Imagination and transforming Mind Image into language of Cinematic Expression in Film and Video.
Dancing with Light Technique seeks the relationship between emotional and intellectual content of the Scene and Choices for the expression of
those qualities. It is an expanded into motion and color - version of Ansel Adams' method of Previsualization. Zone System of Exposure is a
foundation of the technique...an imperative element in the process of translating imagined values of Grey into language of film and video.
The Technique is a systematic and logical approach to realization of creative process and as such, an invaluable tool for Directors and Directors of
Photography in their pursuit of self expression. Dancing with Light combined with psychological attributes of camera lens, camera position and
movement, lighting style and meaning of color encompasses the process of Cinematic Expression. The true nature of Artistic Process is in ability to
follow on preconceived idea. Needles to say this not only saves time and money but protects one from necessity of improvising. Lighting from
imagination with light meter and, without help of video monitor is at the core of creative expression in film and video. Having an Idea... Plan in one’s
mind, is the cornerstone of creativity as what remains is to exploit the technical in order to realize it.
Dancing with Light Technique with meaningful use of Tools of Cinematic Expression are the main aspects of the Workshop.
"After years of studying filmmaking, many students realize they do not know how and what to do once they find themselves on a production set. In
my opinion, this is the result of wrong approach to teaching. Based on my experience, many teachers do not explore the importance of
cinematographer's mindset by not making student aware of the logistics inherent in creative process. They fail to recognize Creative Process as an
organic system that is governed by logistics, teaching of which starts with first exercise in Mood creation"... Janusz
