Description

The film is the visual art to tell a story, and it's the way narratives are transformed into true stories, but the true master of this art is the person behind the camera. Learn the basics of filmmaking and be a pro at operating the camera.Learn how to create depth to get cinematic shots into your sets. It doesn't matter if you're creating tutorials, interviews, a film, or even more important video calls, you always need a set. In this class, you're going to learn to create your own film set in your home.The most important part of filmmaking is cinematography and sometimes it's hard to achieve these nice shots.What will I learn?In this class, we’re going to start the filmmaking journey by creating a cinematic shot with the right framing. Then we’re going to understand the importance of camera angles and movement. The next step in filmmaking will be telling a story because the film is the visual art to tell a story. The story is the most important part of filmmaking, and it will be the longest part of this class. We’re going to see how different framing, angles, and movements can tell different emotions and feelings. And to give our videos the last final touch to look professional, we’re going to dive a little bit also into lighting.In this class, we're also going to learn what depth is, create depth with the main light, play around with practical lights and the background to create a more cinematic shot. After this class, you're going to know how to light up your set for film or talking-head shot and get a cinematic shot.Also, this class will cover:Identify what makes a video cinematicTrain the eye to find nice shots (angle, movement, framing, composition)Find the right tools to create cinematic shotsGo into a new place and find the right way of filming to achieve cinematic shotsLight up the set just with sunlight.Working with reflectors and negative fillMoving the camera to create depthUnderstanding the programKeep a clean editingcreate better 2D animationsediting with music correctlyColor correctionTransferring footage to other Adobe AppsFor who is the class intended for?This class is for everyone who is just starting the journey of becoming a filmmaker and want to tell their stories through film. This class is also for every beginner videographer or even a professional who didn't understand how to create depth using lighting.What do I need for this class?For this class youțre just going to need a camera. It could be a smartphone, a camcorder, or even a professional DSLR. The focus in this class is not on video quality, like resolution, but what the camera operator did.If you have any softboxes or film lights (even cheap ones) you can follow this class along, but if not, also a window can do the job. If you have any other lights (like decorative lights, led band, …) you can simply use them as practical lights to create depth.
