Our guest on the show this week is cinematographer Rafael Leyva. It was great to chat with Rafael and here his unique approach to the work, his love of film, and so much more.

I really enjoyed our conversation and hopefully we can have him back on again in the future to chat about more specific projects.

Be sure to check out his work below and give him a follow over on Instagram.

Enjoy!

Advanced Cinematography: Location Lighting - LAST CHANCE

Friday this week is your final chance to enroll in Advanced Cinematography: Location Lighting.

The course is not going away but I am going to limit enrolment in the advanced series going forward and open it up only once or twice as year.

This course walks you through every aspect of cinematography in a typical commercial environment. I lay out what I do in prep, before the location scouts, during the location scouts, the tech scout process, the gear list, the crew, then we shot an entire ad from start to finish on a virtual set.

I go over schedules, the importance of sequencing, and so much more.

I titled this course Advanced because I didn't water down the content to make it more approachable. This is the whole entire job. Everything I do from start to finish on every project I am a part of. Nothing is left to the imagination.

I created this course because this is exactly what I would have liked to have access to when I was starting my professional career. I think if you are in a position where your commercial career is just beginning than no content I have put out anywhere else comes close to the amount of information laid out in this course.
