Explore the fundamentals of DSLR video filmmaking. This online workshop covers standard camera functions and the artistic possibilities of DSLR cameras. Students will learn how to manually control exposure to create professional video content and cinematic looks. Learn from an experienced instructor and local filmmaker, ask questions specific to your projects, and make connections with other filmmakers in a small group setting.
