ICG/DreamWorks Lighting Seminar
In an effort to bring a new
dimension to their already successful animation
arm, DreamWorks SKG (Antz, Chicken Run,
Shrek) approached the International Cinematographers
Guild, Local 600 with the purpose of “exposing”
their talented animators to the lighting
magic of several of their live-action counterparts.
Renowned cinematographers Allen Daviau ASC,
Michael Goi, Jack Green ASC, and Laszlo
Kovacs ASC shared their lighting philosophies
and demonstrated several practical techniques
to the group. ICG president George Spiro
Dibie ASC and DreamWorks’ Frank Gladstone
coordinated the day-long seminar held October
18 in Burbank, California for approximately
150 enthusiastic participants.

| A
generic living room set was constructed and
propped with the basic sofa, table, chairs
and potted plant. Each cinematographer was
given 90 minutes to transform the drab space
into an environment conducive to the visual
and emotional tone of the imaginary movie
he was lighting. The audience followed the
transformation in real space at the front
of the stage, as well as on several video
monitors placed throughout the seating area. |

Lighting Division at ARRI called on Illumination
Dynamics in Los Angeles (an ARRI Group company)
to provide a complete lighting and grip package
to give the cinematographers a wide selection of
creative choices. When not supporting ARRI in industry
educational events, Illumination Dynamics is a full-service
