EQUIPMENT TRAINING MEETING #2 |
| |
| when:
Thursday January 29th, 2009 - 7pm |
| where:
109 Willams Hall (the studio) |
| what:
If you plan to produce a project, you must have attended an equipment training meeting to check out equipment from MAFIA. We will put big orange signs for those of you
who haven't been to Williams. This meeting will cover all the basics of our equipment (camera, lights, cstands, jib, dolly, sound, etc.) This will just be what
everything is for, how to set it up, and how to do it safely. Maybe some lighting and shot composition basics if there is time. We aren't going to get much into
cinematography, mostly because I'm not very good at it, but also because that would take at least another 2 hours and the best way for you to learn is to do it!
(work on a movie). The building closes at 9pm, so it absolutely won't be any longer than 2 hours. We will be having a group "editing training meeting" at a later date,
which we'll let you know about.
