Mastering Exposure – Patrick O’sullivan

The concepts in this course singlehandedly changed the trajectory of my cinematography career for the better.

I followed a rather unique path in to the business of image creation and I always felt like I needed to catch up to my peers and make up for lost time. I didn’t go to film school. I didn’t work my way up the camera department ladder.

I wanted to be the one behind the camera, calling the shots, and creating the images I was drawn to and that meant I needed to up my skills and knowledge levels as fast as possible.

I spent years wasting my time and scouring the internet for tips or techniques that I thought might increase my skills but it wasn’t until I realized how important a foundational level of understanding around exposure was and developed a technique for truly onboarding all of the details that go in to exposing a image that I finally started to see results.

This course is my attempt to share this technique with you so that you can skip the years I wasted trying to figure out what I was doing wrong and what other DPs knew that I didn’t.

This course has the potential to change your career and immediately increase your skills. I know because it happened for me.

What You’ll Learn In Mastering Exposure

• How to Develop Pattern Recognition:The goal is to teach you a language and the grammar necessary so that you can forget the technicalities of image creation and focus on the creative aspects.
• Measuring Values On Set & Off: A cinematographer needs to practice. What are they practicing though? How can you get better without a crew, a camera, a film set?
• How to Become Better Without Shooting: You have heard the world’s best cineamtographers say that you need to shoot, shoot, and shoot some more to up your skills. But why? What actually moves the needle when you are shooting and wouldn’t it be powerful if you could work on these skills anytime you wanted.
• Shedding the Technical Jargon:To fully master control over the image we have to understand how to manipulate every variable possible. Once we do then we can actively choose what we want to keep and what we want to get rid of. This is when the creativity and individual style begins to show itself
