https://www.filmmakersacademy.com/blog-exposing-motion-picture-film/




Presented by cinematographer Shane Hurlbut, ASC, and in collaboration with Kodak, this course is a deep dive into the art and science of shooting on 35mm, 16mm, and Super 8. Drawing from his experience on over 23 feature films, Shane demystifies the entire analog process, teaching you to be both a scientist and an artist.

You will learn to stop relying on a monitor and start trusting your most essential tools: the light meter and the spot meter. Shane provides a complete playbook for mastering the analog workflow…

• Film Stocks: Understand the unique personalities of Kodak's color negative and reversal stocks, from 50D to 500T.
  
  
  
• Essential Filters: Master the critical concept of "filter factor" and learn to use essential glass like the 85, 80A, 81EF, and Color Enhancing (Didymium) filters to create your look in-camera.
  
  
  
• Controlling Contrast: Learn to use graduated ND filters (the "Tony Scott" way) and attenuators to tame bright skies and balance any scene.
  
  
  
• Real-World Scenarios: Go on location with Shane to master high-contrast backlit scenes, side lighting, and the precise techniques for extending the "magic hour" at twilight.
  

From calculating ratios to understanding the photochemical finish, this is your exclusive guide to mastering the craft of film exposure from one of the industry's most experienced DPs.
