Warren talks about his new CT202 Color Therapy class. It focuses on the client and business side of the business. Next class in Portuguese Nov 27 2020. warreneagles.com.au/current-classes

You can find lots of online training teaching the tech but very few about the business. This new mentoring class is ideal if you have a good understanding of the software but still have lots of un-answered questions about the industry in general. This is not a technical class, more of an information session on how and why I do things. It features my ideas on how to best tackle a session and at the same time managing your client’s expectations. My aim is to simulate a junior working with a senior colorist in a full time situation. Some of the topics covered:

• How to stay motivated
• Does the kit make a big difference
• How to handle a room of clients
• What should you be charging?
• Features or Commercials, Docos or Music Videos. Can I cover them all or is it better to focus on a niche?
• Social Media, when and how many times should I post?
• Should you work for free? If not what discount should you give?

En este video explico la dinámica del curso de color.

Kevin and Warren discus via ZOOM the ICA Virtual training options, who it is aimed at and what are the kit requirements for the student.

In 2019 Warren and Kevin headed to Bogota, Colombia for the first South American ICA Classes. This is a behind the scenes student testimonial film. Bogota is a vibrant fun city and was a fantastic place to run our classes. I think this comes across in this film.

Why take a class with Kevin?

Ten years of ICA pictures from 2009 to 2019 taken all over the globe, from North Korea to Hollywood.

‘Shoot to Screen’ a new class

Shoot – Backup – Edit – Color Match – Deliver.

Do you often find yourself doing a bit of everything? In this new course from the ICA we will start with a 3 camera shoot ( RED, BMCC, SONY) and dive into how you should shoot for the grade and pre plan your shots to make your life easier in post. However this doesn’t always happen so we’ll be making some common mistakes on this shoot and then learning how to ‘fix’ or match them correctly in Davinci Resolve. Not all cameras look the same so matching cameras is a common problem all productions face.

This class is an excellent introduction to working with DaVinci Resolve and Frame.io. It is ideal for first time users and you do not need any experience to attend. It is important when learning any software to learn the correct way, that will then form a great foundation going forward.

Class size is capped at 15 students. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own laptop with Davinci Resolve already installed. You will be get the footage we shoot in the morning so can follow along with the Post Production side of the class.

The class mixes the operational side of Resolve with real world workflows and problems that might happen while shooting. It is run at a relaxed pace, questions are encouraged and group participation is a key part of the course.

This class is ideal for small production companies, ‘1 man band content creators’, editors, DITs, DPs, and Photographers, basically anybody with a desire to learn more about color correction and workflows. Producers and Directors who are not necessarily hands on will benefit from the workflow knowledge that the class brings.

You will learn:

Best practices for multi camera shoots

Complete overview data wrangling software to backup your footage successfully.

Exporting with color correction or a LUT for the Editor, Producer and VFX team.

Basic editing and how to build a timeline in Resolve.

Matching our sequence with different cameras: Where do you start?

Primary correction.

Secondary correction.

A general look at different camera formats.

Finishing and rendering to Frame i-o, Vimeo, ProRes Master

Who should attend:

This is a 101 level class that aims to take your projects to the next level. Questions and student participation is strongly encouraged.

Cinematographers, editors, DPs, DITs, directors, Social Media producers and production company individuals who do everything are all welcome to attend.

Instructors:

All ICA instructors have at least five years experience in the industry.

They are working colorists, editors and VFX artists.

Certificates & Materials:

All students on this course receive an ICA Certificate and selected media.

The second ICA Colorist Summit took place in Waikiki during October. The Summit mission is to go to places not normally on the ICA roster. In 2017 we were in Bali and received great support from locals and international students. Hawaii was no different. We had guests visiting from London, Amsterdam, Taipei and LA mixing with local Hawaiians.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Summit has shorter classes allowing for more holiday/networking time. Kevin and Warren both mixed up their normal ICA classes with different options especially for Hawaii. Class lunches/dinners, bike rides, shuffleboard and surfing lessons were just some of the after class activities we encouraged. The week closed with the Hawaii Colorist Mixer which was free and open to the local film making community. The Summit was a huge success. Look out for news on the 2020 European Colorist Summit.

Check out the wrap movie here to see what some of the students had to say.
