HOLLYWOOD CAMERA WORK REVIEW

Let see where do I start… I will be honest when I first saw Hollywood Camera Work ad I thought “great another fly by night, get rich scheme aimed at poor filmmakers”. Much to my very happy surprise their DVD series “The Master Course In High-End Blocking And Staging”, created by director Per Holmes, was extremely informative and I believe well worth the money! There are seminars/classes that try to teach you the art of directing, most are a big let down and waste of money.

This series will teach you a lot. As most of you know I have been in the industry for quite a few years and I am pleased to say I LEARNED some great stuff from this series!

The DVD series, which is done with 3D models, starts off really explaining the basics of shots. For those of you who are just starting out you will learn a lot from this. From there we go into blocking, camera movement, and then staging high end scenes. As I prepare for my next film, this series really gave me some great ideas and insight for my shotlist.

So lets see..how much is it to go to film school? Why not pick up The Master Course In High-End Blocking And Staging and put the rest of the money into your film?
