01 · What this is

Always dreamed of creating something the world actually experiences?

Over two days, you'll learn to shoot, light, edit and colour a real cinematic music video — with a live artist performing and a full RED Digital Cinema package in your hands. Award-winning directors and producers guide you from the set to the colour suite in DaVinci Resolve on EIZO monitors: the same workflow behind multi-million-view music videos. Four cities across Australia, just 25 seats per city. Every city's music video is released by the artist after the tour, and you're in the credits.

02 · What you walk away with

The whole pipeline.

PRE-PRODUCTION

Treatment, shotlist, schedule

How a video gets locked before the camera opens.

  • Treatment and references that sell the idea
  • Shotlist mapped to a live performance
  • A schedule that survives the day
LIGHTING

Building a cinematic rig live

The plot built in front of you, artist on stage.

  • One shaped key beats six flat sources
  • Reading the venue, controlling spill
  • Mood that still reads after the grade
CAMERA

RED Komodo X & V-Raptor

Full RED builds in your hands, not on a shelf.

  • Exposure, false colour, on-set monitoring
  • Lens choice for movement and compression
  • Run on the floor with RED APAC
POST

Edit & colour in DaVinci Resolve

Cut to the track. Graded to ship.

  • Editing to music and performance
  • A look that holds on EIZO reference monitors
  • Sound, finishing, delivery
In partnership with
  • RED logo
  • EIZO logo

The gear on the floor is the real thing.

This isn't a demo with borrowed kit. Our partners put working cinema cameras and reference-grade monitors in every room — the same tools you'd spec on a paying job.

RED logo
Camera & cinema systems

Full RED packages in every city — Komodo X and V-Raptor bodies with complete builds. On the floor for the camera masterclass with RED APAC.

EIZO logo
Colour & monitoring

EIZO ColorEdge reference monitors on the grade — hardware-calibrated and colour-accurate, so the look you build in Resolve is the look that ships.

03 · The tour

Four cities. Four artists. Four music videos.

Each city runs the same two-day shape: full workshop day with a live artist, ending with the Backstage to Broadcast premiere. Day Two is an optional post-production deep-dive in DaVinci Resolve at a separate venue.

You're shooting now. You want to step up the kit, the look, and the way you run a set. You want to leave with a workflow you can use Monday morning.

Church and live-production teams

Production teams making the jump from broadcast-style to cinematic. Bring the camera team and the lighting lead.

TERTIARY

Senior film school students and emerging DPs

Final-year and recent-grad cinematographers building first kits, first reels, first paying clients. Direct time with working directors.

08 · Questions

The ones we hear most.

How do I book, and when are venues announced?

Tickets are on sale now — book your city above. Venues are revealed July 13; we'll email the address and full run sheet then. 25 seats per city, first-come.

Do I need to own a RED to be here?

No. The whole point is putting working RED bodies in the hands of people who've never run one. Komodo X and V-Raptor packages are on the floor — you'll get hands-on time regardless of what you shoot on day-to-day.

What do I need to bring?

A laptop with DaVinci Resolve installed (free version is fine), a fast SSD if you want to walk out with the footage, and a notebook. Cameras, lights, audio and grip are all supplied in the room.

Can I book just Day Two?

Yes. The post-production masterclass on Sunday is sold separately for people who only want the edit and colour deep-dive. Day One alone is also fine if you can't make Sunday.

Will the footage we shoot be released?

Yes — each city's music video gets released by the artist after the tour. You'll get credited as part of the crew on the videos shot in your city.

Is the livestream a substitute for being there?

No. The Sydney livestream gets you the talking-head, panel and shoot-block content via CreativeLive. It does not get you hands on a RED, time in the colour seat, or the room with the artist. If you can be in a city, be in a city.

What's the refund policy?

Full refund up to 10 days before your city's date. Inside 10 days, tickets are transferable to a mate but not refundable. We try to be human about genuine emergencies — email us.
