About

For 100 years of cinema, cinematographers and directors have been figuring out creative ways to move the camera to enhance their visual storytelling.

Let's have a practical discussion about the art and craft of not just camera movement but taking the audience on a journey particularly through the relationship between the camera and actors.

Learn about the role of the Steadicam Operator, their equipment and how they work with Cinematographers, the rest of the Camera Department and other crew. How to use Remote cameras to incentivise vision for film and television. Includes exploration of scene coverage, the creative intent of cinematographers and directors, on set procedures and management of personnel.

Facilitated by Cinematographer David Richardson ("The BBQ", "25th Reich") and veteran Camera / Steadicam Operator Louis Puli SOC ("The Babadook", "Deadline Gallipoli").
