Plus, if you’re joining us for the five-week filmmaking intensive workshop co-hosted by ICEX and Oscar-nominated producer and filmmaker Anji, this session will serve as a perfect foundation for the lighting techniques we’ll be diving deeper into later.
Ready to uncover the secrets behind those stunning cinematic moments? In this club, ICEX, an award-winning sound designer, film editor, and musician, will guide you through the fascinating world of Hollywood lighting. We’ll have plenty of activities to experiment with, so get ready to see firsthand how lighting shapes every scene.

In this session, we’ll explore how different light setups can transform characters, and the subtle art of using light to tell their stories.
We’ll also dive into the power of colour. Whether it's the golden glow of a sunset, the eerie green of a monster flick, or the cold blue of a thriller, lighting sets the mood like nothing else. And don't worry if you’re new to the subject—ICEX will break down some basic lighting techniques that anyone can try, whether you're a seasoned pro or just curious.
