This 4-day workshop in collaboration with ARRI and Kodak will equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to create visually stunning films using 16mm film and cameras. In addition, a tour of the Kodak Film Lab at Pinewood Studios will be included.
The workshop will be hosted by Belgian Society of Cinematographers (SBC) member Patricia Lopes, an award-winning and internationally acclaimed Director of Photography with a wide range of experience in shooting with film and digital cameras for film, commercials, and music videos. Assisting Patricia will be Philippe Piron, camera assistant on James Bond 'Die Another Day' (2002) and 'Mr. Nobody' (2009).
The workshop is divided into 4 days:

- DAY 2 (28/04): Attendees will have the opportunity to create their own super short films using ARRI film cameras at Good Shepherd Studios. There is no need for pre-prepared scripts or treatments;
- DAY 3 (29/04): Attendees will visit the Kodak Film Lab at Pinewood Studios;
- DAY 4 (10/05): Attendees will screen their work at Good Shepherd Studios' cinema space, where they can invite friends, family, and collaborators.

FAQs
- I’m a student. Is this workshop suitable for me? Absolutely, this workshop is suitable and welcomes participants of all skill levels.

- Do we need to provide scripts to film or do we devise something on the workshop? No, you will brainstorm ideas with your group on the workshop day and then shoot them on Sunday.
