Filmscape Chicago
Lighting and camera for film and television have changed completely in the past ten years. As productions are expected to move faster and faster with increasing levels of complexity, there is very little room for the technician to become proficient or even keep up with the onslaught of technological innovations that have defined our industry in recent years. Even film schools and local unions struggle to keep up.
Filmscape Chicago seeks to answer this question by providing two days of completely free education for technicians, film students, and local filmmakers. We bring in industry standards vendors to exhibit their newest technologies, and the best of the best industry technicians and artists to share their expertise with our audience.
