SOC Hands-On Workshops

This hands-on workshop is designed for camera operators of all levels who are interested in developing valuable, practical knowledge to refine their camera operating skills. Being well versed with the wheels is a plus. Learn how to work with the gear, what gear to use for what shot, the creative choices of setting up a shot using a crane and dolly, as well as best practices for running a set and communication between the operator, director, dolly grip and pickle operator. 

April 16 @ 10:30 a.m. – 6 p.m.

Part II, of this two-part workshop, will address the unique physical challenges and opportunities of female operators. See the gear and technology that supports the female body, learn proper vest fitting and how to set up the gear that enhances the storytelling and physical demands of the job. Also, learn more about Part I: Panel Discussion to be held on Sunday, April 16. Both the Workshop and Panel Discussion will be led by noted female identifying and non-binary operators with varying technical skills and from unique segments of production.
