Master bounce light for key light, room ambiance, fill, and more

How to Bounce Light shines some knowledge on the finer qualities of bounce light. Bounce light is sometimes misunderstood and criminally underused, but it’s Shane Hurlbut, ASC’s first choice for key light, room ambiance light, and fill light sources.

Be prepared to learn the deeper nuances of bounce light from a cinematographer who truly appreciates its value. In this course, Shane presents the strengths of a bounce source for the storytelling process.
