I will NOT be able to make a SATURDAY CLASS as we previously discussed last Tuesday. We will get a chance to do a Saturday Class in the future.  We will shoot some Greenscreen Next week using the photos you took for class. Meet me on the first floor outside the greenscreen room. I will bring the camera and the monitor  All you need to do is bring your background plate photos and I will show you how to use a lighting plot. See you all there!

Over the next few weeks we will go over the proper use of lighting and grip gear and the basics of how to light a subject to achieve the lighting effects to match a background plate shot.

Here is a great example of a mix of VFX, Helicopter, Crane and a moving camera car with 8 cameras shooting a scene that blends seamlessly into a one-take long dramatic shot from the film War of the Worlds. Ill add some scenes that I would like you to look at that may be a bit more our speed that we can shoot in class. I would like to invite you to my Grad Lighting class to get an idea of how a crew works to...
