[ecrea] Symposium - Digital Cinema: workflows and aesthetics

The Look, Digital Cinema Aesthetics and Workflows

Friday 01 Apr, 10:00-18.00, Watershed Cinema, Bristol

The 'look' of a film used to be the domain of the cinematographer. As a result of the various new forms of image manipulation that have appeared in the last decade and a half, new types of collaboration have emerged - for example, between cinematographers, post-production supervisors, visual effects artists, and colourists. Given the multiplicity of ways in which the aesthetics of a film can change after shooting is complete, a key question presents itself: who controls what aspects of a film's look?

Drawing from a range of specialisms, bridging theory and practice, this one-day symposium will explore, and attempt to demystify, the movement of film and video footage through the digital production process from camera to exhibition. Guest speakers include Geoff Boyle DoP FBKS (Wallander , The Mutant Chronicles), Jonathan Smiles, Digital Production Supervisor (District 9, Green Zone), Luke Rainey, Colourist (Band of Brothers, Man on Wire), Professor Sean Cubitt, Professor Sarah Street, Professor Duncan Petrie, Dr Charlotte Crofts, Dr Richard Misek.
