Gear Up: Building the Perfect Interview Shot
March 25 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Free – $15.00
Join us on Tuesday, March 25th, at Hinckley Productions for an engaging event where three industry professionals from different backgrounds will showcase their go-to gear and demonstrate how they set the scene for the perfect interview shot. After each expert shares their role and approach on set, we’ll open the floor for a group Q&A, followed by a more personal, face-to-face session where you can ask questions directly and get a close-up look at their gear.
