⏲ 30th and 31st July, 10:00 to 18:00
In this two day intensive course, organised in partnership with ShortCourses@NFTS, BAFTA-winning cinematographer Richard Greatrex guides a small group of students through the specific, practical lessons he’s learned in a career spanning over thirty years. At the end of the first day, BAFTA-winning DoP Remi Adefarasin will give a special guest lecture about his particular approach to the craft. Using clips from their own diverse body of work including such films such as Shakespeare in Love, Elizabeth, About a Boy, and Band of Brothers, Greatrex and Adefarasin will explain the creative and practical solutions they’ve found over the years and will show the students how to apply these solutions to their own work. This course will be highly interactive, with lively discussions that will continue into the evenings as the tutors join the students for a complimentary drink at the pub at the end of each day.
This course is ideal for jobbing cinematographers and camera operators who want to take their craft to the next level, as well as for directors, producers, editors, and any other film professionals who want to better understand this essential part of cinematic storytelling.
