Workshop of the Month:

Small to No Crew: Cinematic Video Lighting Workshop with Jem Schofield of TheC47

This one-day hands-on workshop with Jem Schofield of theC47 will take attendees through how to light for documentary, in-house & corporate based projects. This will include going through the process of planning & lighting using largely low-key, cinematic techniques and will feature lighting, lighting control, composition and camera set-ups to teach you how to light for a wide range of projects. Jem will also discuss and demonstrate certain "rules" that can be followed to help you consistently shoot great and natural looking one & two-camera interviews in different shooting environments. The workshop will be delivered in a conversational style that will allow Jem to work effectively with his crew (attendees of the workshop), while still teaching process & craft. Exactly like being on an actual, working set!
