Welcome to the Light & Shadow Workshop Group.
Our mission is to share with the New York independent
film community the knowledge and practical skills needed to excel in the art of lighting and cinematography.
When it is your turn to make a movie, you must ask two questions:
1) "Where should I put the LIGHT?" A single strategically placed light can work the magic of four or five incorrectly placed lights.
2) "How to create SHADOW?" Anybody can switch on a light and flood a scene with light and ma …

Hi, I'm Francesca, an indie filmmak
er and trans-media artist who lived in Manhattan for 25 years and thought nothing of calling a friend and suggesting we meet in an hour at one of the many arthouse theaters around town.
But, when I moved to NJ I found my friends here did NOT share my tastes so I created the NJ ArthouseFilm Society (just to sound fancy). And, wouldn't you know i …
About a year ago, I began purchasing equipment to develop video content. It started out with a camera, then another, then microphones, then Final Cut, then Motion, then a green screen, then lighting, and so forth. I realized that there are probably other people like me, producers, directors, cinematographers, sound engineers, video editors, writers, actors, and just plain film, TV, and web video enthusiasts who have ideas, and want to see their projects developed... well, NOW is your chance! The …

If you are voters for Oscars, SAG Award, WGA/PGA/DGA Award, you probably would be bombarded with free screening invites, etc by now. (Many of them even include Q&A with stars/director/writers, etc) And I can't be the only one who thought it would be fun to go there with multiple people, getting together after the movie and talk about what we just saw. (And maybe, you might meet someone new...) If that's what you have in mind, this meetup is for you. Each voters are entitled to one guest (note: g …

Cinema Heads is a movie group unlike the others; our goal is to view movies with a conscious. We enjoy screenings of films prior to their release dates. Screenings that include a discussion with the film directors, cast, critics or the opportunity to get in deeper into the film industry and the purpose behind the making of the film is what appeal to us the most. Afterwards we gather for dinner and or refreshments to discuss the movie we just seen.You may also consider yourself a "Cinema Head" if …

You spend your days being serious, responsible, professional, respectable. Maybe you have a stressful job, have bills to pay, have people who depend on you. Being an adult is hard work! Once in a while, we adults need to play - whether it be for an hour or evening - to get back in touch with our inner child.
