Research Perspective In Film Practice

The aim of this course is to give students an insight in the function and use of celluloid motion picture film cameras. This course will focus on the basic techniques of filming with 16 mm film stock, particularly on the manipulations of the film camera, measuring light, and post production. It includes the technical handling of camera and related equipment as well as all the duties of people behind the camera and next to the camera. All procedures in testing the cameras, administration on the set, and film-based post-production will be covered in theory and practice.
