The International Cinematographers Guild (ICG, IATSE Local 600) is programming two events at the upcoming NAB Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center while many ICG members will be appearing throughout the event on over 15 panels and sessions covering a wide range of industry challenges.

The following morning at 11:30 am, the ICG, along with the American Society of Cinematographers, will host the Birds of a Feather gathering “The Cinematographic Imaging Process: Where Does it Begin and End?” The session will bring together camera, previs, post, and VFX professionals to look at how to improve cross-departmental collaboration as well as to shine a light on the role of the cinematographer within this process. There will be featured speakers – Kees van Oostrum, ASC, President, ASC; Ryan McCoy, senior previs/postvis supervisor at Halon; Jim Berney, VFX Supervisor; and Andrea Chlebak, senior colorist, Deluxe Group –as well as open discussion between all attendees.
