SUMMARY:Lighting Masterclass with DP Aaron Morton and Gaffer Scott Harman
DESCRIPTION:The NZCS is excited to kick off our 2025 Professional Development Program with a Masterclass in Auckland with our President\, internationally respected DP Aaron Morton NZCS\, who is around for a short time before he heads to the USA to prep a project. \nIn association with the NZCS Major National Sponsor\, Xytech Lighting Rentals\, Aaron and Gaffer Scott Harman will host a practical lighting presentation\, from 10.00am to 3.30pm\, on Sunday March 2nd with a lunch-break around noon. \nAaron and Scott will demonstrate a variety of lighting approaches\, and techniques using models\, props and practicals\, and there will also be a chance to view some newly-released lighting units courtesy of Xytech. This will be an opportunity for Aaron to pass on knowledge about how he has developed his personal style\, and how he approaches the challenges of the craft. The session will reveal insights such as why Aaron still considers a light meter one of his most important lighting tools and why he prefers to operate a camera in the thick of the drama\, rather than be stuck in a DIT tent. \nThis course is aimed at our more experienced cinematographers. There are only 20 places available\, so we are opening up pre-sales to NZCS Cinematographer Members first and will release to the general membership in the following 24 hrs. Register quickly\, as we anticipate a high demand. \nCost is $160 for NZCS Cinematographer Members – 24 hr pre-sale. \nPlaces are limited to 20 so exclusive to NZCS members only. \nDetails of the venue will be e-mailed to registrants. Lunch and morning/afternoon tea will be provided. \nMorning session will be 10.00am- 12.00pm\, lunch from 12.00pm to 1.45pm\, afternoon session from 1.45pm – 3.00pm \nAny enquiries please email pd@nzcine.com

SUMMARY:ShowNews Academy - Brazil
DESCRIPTION:This month writer Clinton Phillips has chosen Terry Gilliam’s 1985 classic visionary Orwellian fantasy\, dark comedy\, that’s filled with strange\, imaginative visuals. \nThe film won 2 BAFTA’s – Best Production Design and Special Effects. And it was nominated for 2 Oscars – Best Writing and best Art Direction. \nDirected by Terry Gilliam \nStarring Michael Palin\, Peter Vaughan\, Kim Greist\, Katherine Helmond\, Ian Richardson\, Robert De Niro\, Ian Holm\, Jim Broadbent\, Bob Hoskins\, Jonathan Pryce \nTickets only $10!\nHappy Hour drinks from 7pm.\nScreening 8:00pm. \n‘In the dystopian masterpiece BRAZIL\, Jonathan Pryce plays a daydreaming everyman who finds himself caught in the soul-crushing gears of a nightmarish bureaucracy. This cautionary tale by Terry Gilliam\, one of the great films of the 1980s\, has come to be esteemed alongside antitotalitarian works by the likes of George Orwell\, Aldous Huxley\, and Kurt Vonnegut Jr. And in terms of set design\, cinematography\, music\, and effects\, BRAZIL is a nonstop dazzler.’
