Event Details

Practical Hands-On with ColorChecker PassPort - CMUG

March 10th (Tomorrow Evening)
----------------------------------

The last CMUG event 'Profiling Digital Cameras' on January 21st, conducted by Michael Neumann, gave us all a strong grounding in the more theoretical aspects of camera profiling. However, Michael ran short of time to do the hands on and demo portion that many had been expecting to see. 

So we here at CMUG Central decided this presented the perfect opportunity enhance the experience by offering our first hands on seminar!

Practical Hands-On with ColorChecker PassPort, Wednesday March 10th at Gary Hush Photo Studio.
Free to attendees of Michael's Jan. 21st event, and only $5 for everyone else!

Mark Fitzgerald, of The Digital Darkroom and famous author of a gad-zillion books, has agreed to be the presenter. Mark has a brand new Canon 5D and will only have had a ColorChecker Passport for 2 weeks (as a meager payment for his valuable time), so his presentation will illustrate how easy (or hard) this product is to use. However, Mark is a great presenter and (we think) can help convey the ColorChecker Passport workflow process quite well.

Further, any attendee from the Jan 21st Michael Neumann CMUG event can bring 1 digital camera to make a Passport profile, free. Compliments of CMUG, Mark Fitzgerald and Gary Hush Photo Studio.

Gary Hush Photo Studio is at 2211 NW Front Ave. # 301, Portland, OR 97209

This promises to be a great event. RSVP at <http://cmugpdx.eventbrite.com>

Should I Be Thinking About Video - ASMP

March 18th, 7:00 PM - Andy Batt Studio

----------------------------------

Gail Mooney will discuss the increased demand for video and how to identify potential opportunities for you. What tools do you need? How do you change your thinking from still to motion? What are the business models for video production?

Seminar topics

  • Markets for video
  • Tips for shooting motion
  • How to get good audio
  • How to shoot great interviews
  • Camera gear suggestions
  • Editing hardware and software suggestions
  • Business of video production — how not to be just a content provider
  • Common mistakes photographers make and how to avoid them

Gail Mooney, along with her partner Thomas Kelly, run Kelly/Mooney Productions, a visual communications company in New Jersey. Gail has 30 years of experience in still photography, shooting for international magazines, major corporations and advertising agencies. Gail started shooting 35mm motion footage for stock in 1996, and in 1999 started producing and shooting video projects. Since then, her company has become fully integrated with multimedia. She has also produced two short documentaries: The Delta Blues Musicians and Through the Hearts and Hands of Children about the New Jersey Youth Symphony. She is currently working on a multimedia documentary about two diverse high school groups retracing the Civil Rights Freedom Ride of the 1960’s. Gail sees many opportunities for still shooters to expand into video and multimedia, and she feels that this is just the beginning of how technology will transform how we, as visual communicators, will deliver our message in the future.

“Gail’s enthusiasm is contagious. I walked out of her seminar with a sense of excitement and revitalized energy!”
