What you will discover in this course will help anyone avoid the common pitfalls many filmmakers fall prey to, who inevitably light scenes poorly. Instead of focusing on every single lighting technique currently available, or the best lighting equipment on the market, your guide, Drew Harris, Director of Photography, will teach you how to “light with a purpose”.
It is not about the equipment you do or do not have. This course is about the fundamentals and taking advantage of what is available to you and leveraging those resources.

His techniques will apply not just exclusively to feature films, but documentaries, commercials, or any gig you are currently working on!

From concept to completion that was always the intention we had as Drew and our team spent months developing this for you. We wanted it to be impactful, quick and to the point. Drew does not waste your time and jumps right into the heart of becoming better at lighting and ultimately helps you build a better foundation as a filmmaker. Included are short videos taking you step by step through our approach and it also includes all the Behind the Scenes Footage you could hope for. We hope you love what you learn, and look forward to developing more for you!
