Filmmakers Academy collaborates with British Cinematographer to offer unique educational content

Apr 5, 2022

British Cinematographer is proud to announce a collaboration with Filmmakers Academy. The partnership between the critically acclaimed 24/7 learning platform and Europe’s No.1 cinematography magazine will enhance and expand the experiences and value for BC magazine readers and FA members.

The first lessons of the new monthly educational video series, hosted by film industry professionals, are featured on our video-on-demand platform, BCinePlayer.  

In a recent featured video, Shane Hurlbut, ASC leads a masterclass covering Blocking and Matching Coverage. Hurlbut takes viewers through the steps of bringing a scene to life with coverage and blocking, using examples from one of his many film projects. Viewers can learn everything from composition and choosing the right lens for the job, to breaking down the camera’s movement to create an effective flow that will enhance the storytelling. This month’s featured video on the BCinePlayer takes viewers through the steps of how a director preps a commercial. These lessons are specially selected from the dozens of courses available to Filmmakers Academy All Access members.
