As the approaches in the realm of experimental may vary substantially from one project to another, the exact technical specs will be consulted and decided as per the individual project.

Learning outcomes

The students will improve their practical skills of lighting and camera operating. They will learn how to create a lighting setups based on the given script and director’s approach. The participants will develop a specific cinematic style for shooting the given script, all based on their previous experience.

In this exercise the students will also prove their ability to work closely with a film director through understanding the concept of the project and the director’s individual creative approach. At the same time they will demonstrate their ability to push their own creative angle to maximum and to bring it to life on the screen.
