About the ACS Victoria Cinematography Intensives Anamorphic Lenses Masterclass:
 |
The two-day weekend course will be conducted both Interior and Exterior utilising Arri Alexa 4:3 cameras with a complement of equipment and lenses from Panavision including Anamorphic zooms and prime lenses as well as Spherical zooms and prime lenses for comparative purposes.
Participants will first learn about the history and application of anamorphic filming from its beginnings to the modern day and how the transition from film to full frame 4:3 digital cameras has effectively allowed a rebirth of anamorphic into contemporary film making.
Hands-on practical demonstrations will take place over the two days where we will explore perspective variation, lens length decisions, the effect of how different contrast, texture and lighting influence the shot. Spherical and anamorphic focus and distortion will be examined and explained.
Several scenarios will be shot by the participants, and the results later screened and appraised on large monitors or screens. The mystery of anamorphic will be demystified by Peter.
 |
Armed with an educated knowledge from Peters experience, participants will be able to complete the course more fully prepared to shoot anamorphic with a new found confidence and informed understanding of the system, equipment and lenses available. The application of this knowledge gives you the opportunity to shoot images that stand out professionally and scenes that are shot with a clear vision of the outcome.
Participants who complete the course will be presented with a signed ACS Certificate of Completion.
