Course content
Students will get acquainted with the classic trick technologies and their relationship to the basic tools of digital film shooting and post-production. They will also get acquainted with the conditions of the successful shooting of materials for trick shots. Students will improve in the "vision of reality" and the ability to express the genre, atmosphere, and emotions through a photographic / film image. Part of the practice is also the use of stage effects in the current "digital age". They will learn to use the knowledge of 2D programs effectively in the creation of retouching and additional digital drawing (Matte Painting) with regard to the plausibility of the result.
