Private atmosphere and individual attention. Workshop for cinematographers - Film, Video, DSLR Program designed to suit individual interest and purpose of the students. Creatively - equivalent of 4 units of advanced course taught by me at The University of Southern California. Program teaches the essence of realization of creative process in Film and Video expression. Ability to "Light from the Mind" (the film way) can save producer money on the Prelight day eliminating necessity of renting expensive camera and monitor equipment. Being able to light from imagination enables one to engage into nature of creative process. In today's reality only amateurs afford lighting from improvisation. Creative lighting is about execution of mind image originated prior to entering the floor. Upon realization of Lighting, the camera is switched on and created Image displayed on the monitor for comparison with intended Look. This workshop is about realization of Dramatic Film Look in Video through demonstration and hands-on with camera and light. Students light with Light meter with Camera and Monitor being switched off. Once Lighting is done Camera and Monitor are switched on to see the result. Workshop teaches the essence of Technical and Artistic aspects of cinematic expression. Main Areas of concentration: Film Look Dancing with Light Cinematic Expression Feel free to contact people who after spending time at Light Extreme cared to write back to express their opinion.
