Lighting an Interview like a Pro – Without the Pro’s Budget

with Jonathan Lipsy of ISG

Starting at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 22 at CTN5. Register for this and the 10:30 a.m. workshop “Step by Step: Making a Dynamic Documentary here!

What is it that makes one interview shot look so much better than another? Framing the subject, check. Background composition, check. Lighting, did you check? Are you making the best use of what is available to you? What are some of the simple fixtures and usage tips that can make an interview look great when you are on location?  How are you using color? Documentaries tell stories, and—in those documentaries—it is the people who tell the stories. This workshop will help you make them look as good as possible.
