This hands-on course serves as a foundation in the art and science of creative lighting design. Learn how to use light the way artists, scenographers, designers, filmmakers, photographers, directors, architects, and numerous others do every day: to effectively tell a story. Introductory exercises in perception and psychology will lead to intensive experimentation with various sources of light to create 2D images or 3D environments. Composition, form, color, time and movement will be explored, as well as the basics of lighting technology.
