DESCRIPTION:

If you create images in any form: film, photography, games, social content or digital media, understanding light is not optional; it is the foundation of compelling visual storytelling.

Join acclaimed cinematographer and visual storyteller Gerardo Ceres from Relativity Films for an intensive hands-on workshop breaking down the fundamentals of lighting, light shaping, and image contrast.

This workshop is designed to demystify lighting theory and translate it into practical, real-world application. Whether you're shooting narrative film, branded content, portraits, gameplay cinematics or online content, this session will fundamentally change the way you see and use light.

This is a rare opportunity to learn directly from an industry professional working at an international level and gain practical knowledge you can immediately apply to your own projects.
