Diploma in Cinematography is a programme that brings students on a journey to discover the art of storytelling through the craft of lighting and camera technology. Adopting a practical and theoretical approach, students will develop the competence of a professional cinematographer comfortable with the latest equipment, while seeking to advance the art form of Cinema.<\/p>\n

The programme goes beyond the cinematographer\u2019s camera to explore the integral peripheral equipment used in the entire cinematography department. The practical stages of pre-production, production and post-production are covered, while the theory of image-making is investigated through film screenings, analysis and discussions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_video link=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=fPEfL5OSgis” align=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section][vc_row equal_height=”yes”][vc_column width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1555776239305{background-color: #f9f9f9 !important;}”]
