Course overview

Within this course, students will learn how observation, reference and awareness of light support the emotional impact and believability of the screen image in film and visual effects. While studying in this immersive industry-based course, delivered on-site at Rising Sun Pictures, students will undertake a series of production projects that emulate the processes of a professional production schedule. Focus will be on technical skills and aesthetic evaluation so that images not only look right but can also be rendered efficiently. Students will develop their lighting, compositing, and technical knowledge to produce a high quality, finished product for their portfolios.
