I utilize a tool called 'Cine Design' to help visualize, plan and communicate the production's cinematography using 3D rendering.
This helps:
⦿ Save time and money on production days
⦿ Communicate lighting styles and concepts to client / agency before rolling
⦿ Plan challenging shots in pre-production by mapping out complicated camera moves/positions in 3D
⦿ Develop and share detailed plans with various production departments
