Come enjoy an extraordinary evening with Shane Hurlbut, ASC, at the prestigious New York DGA Theater, and immerse yourself into the world of a revolutionary cinematographer. A relentless innovator, Shane is universally regarded as a creative and technical authority in the field of digital cinematography. His constant risk-taking and experimentation have pushed the boundaries of filmmaking into unchartered territory. From his use of HDSLR cameras for major Hollywood motion picture films to his early adoption of 4K technology, Shane has developed a truly distinctive approach to his work.  http://www.bhphotovideo.com/find/eventDetails.jsp/id/1807.

His contagious enthusiasm will surely make this evening enlightening. We'll hear how Shane mixes his creative vision with his craft to produce exceptionally compelling content, including the recent box office blockbuster Need For Speed, the first studio picture to feature the Canon C500 as an A-Camera for principal photography. Other film credits of his include: Need For Speed, Act of Valor, Terminator Salvation, and more.
