Course contents:

A course for 2nd year Camera dept. students. „Lighting II“ continues in the development of material from „Lighting I“ of the 1st year of study. In lectures, consultations and analyses of selected films or TV works, students are introduced to functional and effect issues of lighthing as a cameraman's fundamental means of expression. Emphasis is placed on the technical mastery of lighting which contains film stock characteristics, exponometrics, the characteristics of various light sources, set photographic qualities, costuming and make-up, an a unique view of the light-tone atmosphere resulting from the lighting construction. As well creative issues regarding the electronic image with particular modifications resulting from the recording media used are discussed. Student theory knowledge is checked through the practical exercises „Shots in the Studio“, and the studio scenario „Anti-corrosive Knife“. The shooting of those two practical exercises preceeds the group shooting and evaluation test of the use of negative material which is based on the FAMU 35mm Exposure standard exposure table and exposure modulator. Also, will be a group shooting of a seated model before a particular background, lit at various levels defined beforehand and an evaluation in screening while copying.
