Cinematography: Writing with Motion
Great storytelling isn't just about dialogue. It's about what the audience sees. Whether you are a screenwriter describing a scene or an AI filmmaker writing a prompt, the rules of cinema are the same.
In this course you will stop "recording" scenes and start "directing" them.
You will master the fundamentals of camera, light, and color so you can control mood and guide the viewer's eye on purpose.
