  Had the great opportunity to assist the Tutor and helping Students understanding how lighting and camera composition works.
  Reverse engendering of a scene from a movie: Rebuilding a scene by analysing camera lens, angles, position, depth, motion, point of view and number of light sources, type of light, intensity, color, coherence, position, direction, distance and interaction.
  
  With a better understanding of the real world we can apply this techniques to a virtual world, for different sectors like Games, VFX and Animation.
  
  Students can now have a better view of how to position their camera or lights for a more appealing scene for their future projects.
