Watch Kodak Cinematography: Shooting For Black & White With Allen Daviau & Denis Lenoir

In this training series, nine of the world's finest cinematographers share the wealth of their experience in a workshop setting as they guide you through a series of professional lighting problems both in studio and on location. This unique series is an invaluable guide to students and working cinematographers. Allen Daviau ( The Falcon and The Snowman, Avalon, Bugsy, Twilight Zone, The Color Purple ) takes students back to the golden age of cinematography - the 1920's. He painstakingly recreates the shooting style by employing the filtration, vignetting, aspect ratios and shot coverage of the period. In doing so he evokes the spirit and dynamic of the B&W silent screen masterpieces. Denis Lenoir ( Monsieur Hire, Daddy Nostalgie / These Fooling Things, Paris Awakes Shuttlecock ) creates an intriguing comparison to the work of Daviau by using modern cinematic techniques featuring a moving camera. He shoots with both color and B&W stock to make the comparison complete.

Kodak Cinematography: Shooting For Black & White With Allen Daviau & Denis Lenoir is a 2013 special interest movie with a runtime of 1 hour.
