CG101: Cinematography

With this tutorial, we will take a software independent look at some of the vital terminology that is required to build a solid foundation for learning some basics of cinematography.

What you'll learn

The purpose of these standalone lessons is not to learn how to use any specific software, but rather to focus on learning fundamental terminology. It is recommended that you are familiar with all of the terminology that is discussed throughout these lessons before starting to follow along with any tutorials that have to do with placing or animating a camera, such as rendering or compositing tutorials.
