Sanchit explains the workshop.

Two minutes on what you'll shoot, what you'll learn, and who this session is built for.

Workshop Introduction
Sanchit Arora

Who it's for

Creators who want cinematic footage from the phone already in their pocket.

What you'll do

Shoot a live brief, get real-time critique, and cut a finished reel in-session.

What you leave with

A post-ready reel plus a reference checklist you can use the same day.

Seats are capped at 15 for a reason.

Small groups mean Sanchit critiques every participant's footage, not just a few.

The Curriculum

What this workshop covers.

Six focused blocks, each built around doing the work, not watching slides.

01

LOG & Manual Exposure

Unlock the iPhone's full dynamic range. Set ISO, shutter, and white balance by hand for a controlled cinematic base.

02

Cinematic Framing

Composition, headroom, and movement rules that make phone footage read like it was shot on cinema glass.

03

Natural Light Reading

Position your subject to any available light. Golden hour, harsh midday, or a single window.

04

Live Shoot Challenge

Get a brief and 20 minutes. Shoot it, then bring it back for group critique on the spot.

05

On-the-Spot Editing

Cut, pace, and color your clip in-session. Learn the editing rhythm that stops the scroll.

06

Direct Critique

Sanchit reviews your footage and tells you exactly what to fix next. No automated feedback.

Every seat includes a downloadable shot list and editing checklist. See Pricing
