Pro classes: The Pro Cluster
Covid pressed us to perform online and while we did miss out on large-set work, we gained invaluable insight into the power of Tabletop shooting and the challenges of using one’s own resources. We will make Tabletop work a larger part of our curriculum than in the past and will continue to send gear home with students to do certain assignments.
For the first time we are offering all of the Pro Lighting classes at once to allow more students the opportunity to work large sets and shoots. Fear not, we will split up the classes as needed to assure the very best support for all. Franklin Avery and I (Michael Mejia) will share this series of classes. A fine experience will be had by all.
