November 2024 Workshop Recap
Experimenting with colored lights and fog
For the first time in our workshops, we wanted to have an open shoot session where we prep the set and you have fun experimenting. This was a great way for our students to play around with the set and add work to their portfolios. Here’s how we did it:
We mounted an Amaran 300c to our overhead gantry system
This had a lantern modifier attached with a control skirt. This helped create a very soft and moody look
We had a second Amaran 300c on the side, on a rolling stand
This had a standard reflector modifier, bringing a strong beam of light to accentuate the fog
Our students got to try different light positions, intensities and colours. Plus, each person got a chance to show off their modelling skills!

What are AVI Student Workshops? Every first Wednesday of the month, our studio hosts a free workshop for students ages 16-20 looking to pursue the arts, specifically in film, photography, and digital media. Here you can explore, experiment and add to your portfolio!
Our next monthly workshop is Film Basics: Camera Movements on December 4th. This is an open photoshoot opportunity so please bring your camera!
