Advanced Camera and Lighting

Advanced Camera & Lighting is the second essential camera course and it picks up where the Camera Basics course leaves off. You’ll take your understanding of still images and put them into motion! Learn how to go from individual shots to complete scenes. You’ll also learn the basics of lighting. You’ll finish the course by filming a short one page scene.

This course is part of the Frontier Filmmaking Seminar, but it can be taken by itself as well. Once you upload your final assignment you will get feedback and a grade by the course instructor.
