Description
Would a movie look good if the camera never moved? Camera operators often switch between long shots, medium shots, and close-ups. Using different shots can have a big effect on how the viewer experiences the story. The director of photography, or D.P., is responsible for making the decisions that lead to every perfectly captured scene. Future cinematographers will never watch a movie the same way after they learn the different ways that D.P.s use light shots and camera angles to achieve certain effects. They'll also learn how new technologies such as drones are changing the world of cinema..
