THE ASC BREAKFAST CLUB
Los Angeles, CA. -- The American Society of Cinematographers cordially invite those who enjoy the finer points of filmmaking to the most important meal of the day, with the launch of the ASC Breakfast Club. Slated as a regular series, taking place throughout the year, this is a unique opportunity for amateur filmmakers and lovers of cinema alike to join ASC cinematographers for a light breakfast and a mind-blowing excursion into the psyches of the men and women who make movie magic happen. Each seminar is introduced by a presentation of film clips of selected scenes while discussing that Cinematographer's creative approach to the project and the evolving role of the cinematographer within the industry, followed by a lively, no-holds-barred Q&A session, where no filmmaking secret will be left unexplored.
