Video Settings for Still Photographers

Designed to build technical confidence, this session will bridge the gap between camera settings and cinematic storytelling.

Your Canon camera was built to capture more than still photos—it is a complete, professional tool for filmmaking.

Transitioning from still photography to video requires understanding a few key concepts: frame rates, shutter angles, color, and audio. Learn how to dial in the right settings so you can expand your creative vision with confidence.

What We’ll Cover:

• Frame Rates & Motion Mechanics: Apply the 180-degree shutter rule to capture natural, cinematic motion blur.
• Color Profiles & Settings: Harness log and flat profiles to simplify post-production color balance and grading.
• Audio Integration: Capture crisp, clean sound with proper level monitoring and recording protocols.
• Lighting for Motion: Use basic video lighting techniques to keep your scenes clear and dynamic.

Bring your camera, questions, and real-world workflow challenges!
