Visual Eloquence in Cinematic Expression depends on Choices that Director and Cinematographer make in order to relate to
emotional content of the Scene. Knowledge of the expressive potential of tools of cinematography (Lens, Camera, Light
Color) is detrimental in understanding the reasons behind creative Choices that help in communication with cinematographer.
Vice versa - it helps Cinematographer relate to quality of dramatic/narrative content as sought by Director.
Program relates to Cinematic Expression in two main aspects of directorial interpretation:
1. WHY (Creative) 2. HOW (Technical)
Workshop format - Lecture - Demonstration - Hands-on (with Camera and Lighting)
