Full Day Workshop (Level I*)

Lighting is a basic component of photography yet many photographers do not realize how to utilize it to its fullest potential. This condensed "crash course" will help students to identify lighting patterns, correct for common mistakes, and to optimize their results under specific lighting conditions (i.e. bright sun, shade, etc.), explore diffusion techniques, the use of fill flash, and even gain hands-on experience working in a commercial studio setting. Participants will work with and photograph a model provided for the session.

Directorial MastersDIRECTORIAL MASTERS

This continuing series will showcase the cinema masterworks of some of the most thoughtful and influential directors in recent decades. Both Stanley Kubrick (UK/USA) and Terence Malick (USA) figure amongst cinema's most unique stylists and each has produced milestone works in twentieth century film culture. Kubrick's work ranges from early masterpieces like Spartacus to rarely seen iconic titles like A Clockwork Orange and the classic war film Paths of Glory. Malick's recent blockbuster The Tree of Life has piqued interest in his earlier visionary works.
