Through a series of six progressively challenging projects, this hands-on workshop provides students with professional concepts and techniques in film and digital media production. Emphasizing the aesthetics of cinematography, sessions cover the role of the cinematographer, interpreting the script visually, working with the director, the goals of lighting, camera operation, lens selection, working with a crew and a lab, shooting exteriors and interiors, duties of the camera assistant, knowledge video formats, and using digital exposure meters. Through hands-on practice, students shoot both film and DSLR HD video.
