Rich Hibner Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 (edited) I was browsing cinematography websites and came across these two. They both seem very interesting in joining. I wanted to know if they are worth it. Have good lighting diagrams and tuts. http://www.efplighting.com/?EFPlighting%26...%3BIntroduction seems pretty cool, but from what I can see it's mainly aimed towards "interview lighting" which I won't be doing any of. http://www.digitalcinemasociety.org/ is nice as well, and have a trailer for a narrative lighting which I'm more interested in. Have any of you heard good things about any of them? EFP is $50.00 a year and DCS is $30 a year. I wouldn't mind doing both, but prefer one more than other if you have any opinions.

Premium Member Chris Keth Posted May 1, 2008 Premium Member Share Posted May 1, 2008 I haven't found anything yet that I can't learn fro this forum and/or CML. If you want to donate to either or both, the money is better spent, IMO. Both sites are just amazing fountains of knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrin p nim Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I was apart of the DCS for a little while. They are a good community and have good workshops, I'm sure they have been offering more as of late. Unfortunately, I have fallen out of the community for other priorities; I would probably join again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Rich You're right I was browsing too I guess 2 years ago and founded http://www.efplighting.com/ before they start charging the membership, it was a great educational non profit website, looks great, lots info but as you said they have more basics set ups interviews studio/outdoor, packshots, basic lightning. They have more Tv lighting than motion pictures or series. This year I was tempted to become a member on www.digitalcinemasociety.org because as you said i found this great trailer and search in this website looks they have values info more professional motion picture..., but then I felt the commitment with this great site (cinematography.com), i think as soon as posible i want to become member (Sustaining Member )... As someone say long life to cinematography.com :lol: Xavier Edited May 1, 2008 by Xavier Plaza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
