Among the moments of the day on Saturday 28th November, at 3:30 pm the second out of three highly anticipated masterclasses will take place. The protagonist will be the director of photography Fabrizio Lucci in the panel entitled “Storie di Cinema”, telling the secrets of his profession. He has worked in numerous television and film projects and, among his most famous works divided between cinema and TV, we remember Don Matteo, Coco Chanel, Immaturi, Perfetti Sconosciuti and The Place. The masterclass will be an opportunity, for both students and professionals to understand the construction of an image in a film and an opportunity to learn how to give life to an artistic vision through extraordinary images. A comparison focused on experimentation in the use of light and the camera in the narration of images.
