A Brief History of Lighting Motivation in Cinema, Part 2: Classical Hollywood [VIFF Film Studies]

The second of four lectures in my ongoing series of lighting workshops at VIFF chronicling the history of lighting in cinema, tracing its development from the sunlit studios of early silent film through the three-point setups that defined classical Hollywood realism and film noir to modern techniques of motivated lighting. Tickets can be found here for my upcoming talks on May 21 and 28th. https://viff.org/series/film-studies/ News: FILM FORMALLY - our podcast about all things filmmaking - returns in June!
