Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this lighting class:

Every camera manual tells you how to use a camera but none show you how to use light – the single most important element in photography. This course will introduce you to the fundamentals of lighting, allowing you to pre-visualize light and empowering you to light anything, anytime, anywhere.

How do we use softboxes, grids, snoots, umbrellas or the light of a window or skylight to make our photos compelling? Why does open shade make some portraits wonderful and others terrible? In this one-day technical workshop we'll focus the lights on diverse subjects to match them with their perfect light modifier. After the lecture, you'll set up lighting experiments and have the opportunity to build the lighting on our subjects in hands-on shooting demos.

Starting with a dark studio, we'll begin with a single light and progress to a complicated five-light set. We’ll photograph a model to examine qualities of light like color balance and CRI and then we’ll take a complicated subject and manipulate highlights and shadows with gels, flags, reflectors and polarizers. Learn to pre-visualize diverse light sources as you move the lights, trigger the camera and see the changes on your tablet or smartphone live via WiFi.

Applicable to beginning and intermediate photographers alike, whether you’re thinking of taking your flash off the hot shoe or want to buy your first lighting kit, this class will help you understand strobe equipment and master lighting inside and outside the studio. Bring your sense of humor, and a smartphone or tablet to upload samples, take notes, and to capture your own behind-the-scenes photos.
