| Studio Lighting for Photographers - A 3-Week Class |
|
This class is an introduction to Photography Studio Lighting Equipment and Techniques. You don't need any knowledge of studio lighting to attend and benefit from this class. There's a wealth of knowledge available on studio lighting, everything from photo floods to the most elaborate studio strobes. You can find plenty of information on technical specifications, accessories and techniques, but it's difficult to get this boiled down into the basic knowledge you need to get started in studio photography. In this class we'll make an end-run to the information you need to get started as a studio photographer. Because lighting is the most important factor in any photography that's what we'll concentrate on, but not just the equipment, the implementation too. We'll spend a good deal of time discussing the use of various equipment independently and in conjunction with other systems.
You'll learn ways to use studio lighting in almost any environment and achieve professional looking results. You'll come away from this class with the confidence to go home or back to your studio and start shooting professional portraiture. Another critical part of this class will be the discussion about equipment budgets. I've found that much of the information you find in publications has no regard for your budget. Learning from my experience selling studio lighting, I know first-hand that this is not a realistic way to teach on the subject. Because of this we'll discuss methods of lighting as they pertain to wide range of budgets too. We'll talk about ways that you can start on a shoe-string budget and yet, have equipment that you'll continue to use for years to come. I'll show you ways to add to your lighting equipment while preserving your current investment. Digital and Film Camera Users - you will learn how to use studio lighting with your camera. We'll talk about various systems that work seamlessly with digital and/or film cameras, and ways of adapting to existing systems. This class will meet weekly on 3 evenings starting on the date shown in this listing . Each session will be from 7-9 pm and you may be given assignments between sessions. |
