The Tools of Production provides the fundamental groundwork for both the practical and creative sides of film and digital video production. During class, students will set up and shoot scenes paying particular attention to the expressive aspects of lighting and camera technique as well as the proper use of equipment and the standardized protocol of crew filmmaking. Students become familiar with both camera operation and professional lighting and audio equipment. Weekly class sessions cover camera operation for film and digital video cameras, the use of light meters, detailed lighting instruction, and an overview of audio. The lab fee covers all film, equipment use and processing costs.
