A couple co-workers are going to be doing it starting this Sunday and I was considering doing it as well. It's $1200 which is a bit pricey, but it's 3 full Sundays. I guess he's the guy that shot House on the 5D mk2. I haven't seen the episode yet.
He's prolly most famous for being the DP for "House." My understanding is that he was an early adapter of the MarkII and fell in love with it. "House" famously used a MarkII for an ep last season, and I've read that they still use it at times for this season.
I already have one and a bunch of other equipment. $1200 won't buy me a lens that will improve the quality of what I shoot more than 30 hours of education from someone who is an award winning DP.
Enjoy the workshop! Please post that review when its all said and done. You sound like a pretty objective voice and It'd be super interesting to hear about your experience. I wonder what the differences are between philip bloom vs. shane hurlbut vs. gale tattersall etc.??
