This production-intensive elective provides students with the skills and knowledge required to conceptualise and execute a range of cinematographic techniques in the effective realisation of a screen-based work. Through an integrated study program combining film screenings, camera workshops and cinematography lectures, students are given an historical, conceptual and technological framework within which to explore sophisticated moving-camera techniques including gimbals, dollies and jibs, and advanced lighting, coverage and shooting skills across diverse formats. Students apply the creative and technical knowledge acquired to the development of their own screen-based practice.
