Summary of the Event:
Session – 1 ( Nanlite – Mastering Cinema Grade lighting solutions)
In this session, we’ll explore essential lighting concepts and tools. Three-point lighting involves using a key light, fill light, and backlight to create depth and dimension in a scene. We’ll also discuss the visible spectrum, which refers to the range of wavelengths of light that the human eye can perceive, spanning from approximately 380 to 750 nanometers. Understanding continuous light is crucial, as it provides a steady illumination that helps in accurate exposure and color reproduction. Color contrast involves the differentiation between colors, enhancing the visual impact of a scene. The contrast ratio measures the difference in brightness between the lightest and darkest areas, affecting the image’s clarity and detail. Finally, we’ll review Nanlite’s various models, which offer diverse features like adjustable color temperature, high CRI for color accuracy, and different light intensities to suit various shooting needs.
Session – 2 (Canon – Mastering Cinema Grade Cameras)
In this session, we’ll delve into the features of Canon movie cameras, renowned for their exceptional video quality and versatility. We’ll explore the differences between crop sensor and full-frame sensor, noting how full-frame sensors offer a wider field of view and better low-light performance. Rolling and global shutters will be discussed, with rolling shutters capturing images line by line, potentially causing distortion in fast-moving scenes, while global shutters capture the entire frame simultaneously for distortion-free results. We’ll also cover dynamic range, which measures the camera’s ability to capture details in both the brightest and darkest parts of an image. Additionally, we’ll look into virtual reality lenses, designed for immersive 360-degree filming. Finally, the session will include a hands-on demonstration, allowing you to apply these concepts and features in real-time, experimenting with settings and techniques on actual Canon movie cameras.
