Create Cinematic Films – A Deep Dive into how you can create Movie Magic
How can YOU create cinematic films?!
We distilled a decade of experience into 2 hours of super condensed information. What is important and what is not, where should you invest your time and money, and we deal with misconception.
We explain the basics, evaluate cameras & lenses, talk about acting, directing, art direction, choosing locations, costumes, props, lighting, composition, staging, and post with examples and advice.
Did we arrive at a point where the camera is neglectable?
We are going deeper into technical qualities like resolution, dynamic range,
and of course we go into the relevance of lenses… anamorphic, vintage, spherical… cheap and legendary… we are going to pitch kit lenses against vintage and cine lenses. Can you tell the difference or is the lens choice largely irrelevant to an cinematic image.
We also included a tutorial on how to emulate film looks and how we created our Silence of the Lambs spoof "Breaking The Silence"
