and how are you supposed to pay for this? I've just looked at the website to see the 1 year course for a diploma in filmmaking, it costs £18,500-19,500! How do people afford this, a student loan only covers £9,000 at the most, these graduates must be loaded or have parents which are exceedingly wealthy. To be honest I find it demoralising as an aspiring filmmaker to see that your career aspirations and talent can be struck away just because the fees are extortionate.
Film has the powerful ability to accurately emulate mood and tone, bringing a story to life. Because film sees light much the same way as the human eye, the captured image feels natural and real. And the unrivaled dynamic range of film allows the Cinematographer to capture more detail from the brightest highlights to the deepest shadows, giving the Colorist faithful color reproduction and a wealth of detail that simply doesn't exist with other formats.
Lol glad to help.. I think when you look around.. especially at Super 16 which is what LFA students use, it's still very very relevant today... for example 'The Wrestler' was shot on Super 16...
Ok. This is what confuses me about LFA: Why is it a useful thing to shoot on 16mm at a film school in the year 2010? What relevance does it have? Isn't it a bit like learning to drive with an old jalopy, when you only ever intend to drive a Ferrari or a Lotus? Can someone explain the rare benefit that LFA offers here?
