Saturday, May 11th, 2024 @ 11:00 am PDT

Have you ever wondered why a shot seemed perfect on paper, but doesn't look the way it did in your head?

This course goes beyond tech-talk, taking a look at 6 different films shot on a single focal length, and compares the lenses they used to highlight the narrative effect focal lengths can have on your shot.

By understanding the storytelling implications of each lens, you will be able to align your glass to your goals, and save valuable time and money on set.
