Overview of class

This course teaches students about lighting and cinematography, giving equal weight to theory and practice. You'll be introduced to digital cinema cameras by way of the Canon C100 mk2. You'll learn about light, color, and lenses. You will master the bulk of the lighting and grip equipment in the cage. In addition to the technical side of cinematography, you will begin to explore the artistic side of this craft. You will expand on your work in 190 by examining framing and composition, light, shadow and color as they apply to the moving image. You will work rigorously on your ability to translate meaning, story, and idea into image.
381 will focus on cultivating each student's voice as a cinematographer through projects done individually and in groups of 3-4. This class is a great opportunity to spend more time behind the camera, and to develop
an assured and unique cinematographic style
