SUMMARY:Focusing and Camera Movement Evening
DESCRIPTION:Session led by Tom McDaniel  \n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a practical club night looking at camera movement and focusing techniques\, the sort of stuff that can quietly lift a scene from “fine” to “that feels like a film”. \n\n\n\nEver wanted to pull off an exciting move that has that blockbuster energy\, or tried to block actors only to realise the focus has drifted the moment they take a step? This evening is about getting more confident with the basics that make movement work\, keeping shots usable\, and understanding what’s actually happening when focus goes right\, or wrong. \n\n\n\nWe’ll run through a handful of classic camera moves and explore how to execute them cleanly\, with simple\, repeatable approaches. Alongside that\, we’ll look at practical ways to keep the action in focus while the camera is moving and the performers are moving\, which is usually where things start to unravel. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s a hands on session\, so expect to watch\, try\, adjust\, then try again. The aim is to leave with a better feel for how to plan a move\, how to place people for it\, and how to focus in a way that supports the shot rather than fighting it. \n\n\n\nNon-members welcome for the evening (first two nights free as our guests) Here is how to find us \n\n\n\nDate: Tuesday 3rd February 2026Time: 7:45 pm – 10:00 pm
