I am very happy to announce that Sebastian Wiegärtner & I are going to bring the one and only Philip Bloom for the first time to Austria and Germany for a workshop tour with the three of us.

Visit our dedicated website www.filmmakerstour.com for booking details.

Check out Philip Bloom admitting on camera in German that we shot all of his films! 😉

Every workshop is an intensive training day for DSLR filmmakers at an intermediate level. We will skip the very basics because we assume you already know a little bit if you are a reader of our blogs. Also, the basics are very easy to learn by yourself and we are trying to get you the most of this day.

Workshop content:

• Basic Camera settings (shutter speed, picture profiles, white balance…)
• Pros and cons of DSLR cameras with video function and how to deal with their downsides
• Professional sound recording for DSLRs
• Gear Hands-on, which accessories are important (you will be able to try equipment on location)
• Introduction to large chip camcorders (AF101, F3 …)
• Interview techniques
• Basic lighting on set
• Shooting techniques (camera movements, framing, shot size, crossing the line…)
• Intensive timelapse training including motion control and HDR
• Practice Part
• post production workflow (mainly Final Cut Pro, partly Adobe CS 5.5, Basic Color Grading)

The workshops will be held in English, but if needed, Sebastian Wiegärtner and me will translate everything you don’t understand.

The intensive course costs € 299 for early bookers (including VAT). This special rebate only runs through June 30th and is only valid for the first 12 attendees to sign up. After that, the workshop price will increase to € 349 (including VAT). From experience we can tell that our workshops are booked fully quickly, because we only have a limited amount of spaces in each location.

Die Basic-Infos sind sehr einfach selbst zu erlernen und wir versuchen, für euch das Maximum an neuen Informationen für euch an diesem Tag zu bieten.
