This workshop on direction of photography is both theoretical and practical. The instructor will teach you how to effectively compose your images in order to orient the viewer’s gaze and produce the expected aesthetic effect. Framing, scale of shots and camera movements will give you a complete overview of the cinematographic vocabulary and make you learn to translate your intentions into images with more dexterity.

Workshop is given in French but questions may be asked in English.

You are encouraged to write a short note describing your project / your experience / your expectations for the instructor to guide you best. → Send to services@mainfilm.qc.ca
