Student Film Club Learns Filmmaking Skills at Trident Tech
Last Friday, October 21, the CofC Student Film Club traveled to Trident Tech for the annual filmmaking workshop hosted by Trident filmmaking professor Tim Fennell. Students completed camera exercises on a working set that included using a professional Fisher 10 Dolly and Arri Skypanel lighting; observed and operated the dolly during a “take;” handled different camera department positions like Camera Operator, 1st Camera Assistant and 2nd Camera Assistant; learned set etiquette on who does what and how to work on an active set; and learned useful sound tips as well. Additionally, a certified Steadicam operator exhibited how to create a floating camera look. Thanks to Tim, Randy, and the crew at Trident for making our film minors and club members feel so welcome!
