This is a comprehensive multi-day program which has been structured to conveniently provide flexibility in meeting each student’s needs. In this course, you will learn not only the basics of “How to make a photograph” versus just taking a snapshot, but also advanced techniques that will help you improve your overall photographic skills. You will learn how to develop your own creative vision through use of composition, working with natural and flash lighting, control of motion, use of perspective and depth-of-field, plus other valuable skills all intended to help sharpen your photographic capabilities.
You will be given a hands-on introduction to the digital darkroom via Adobe Photoshop® Lightroom 5. Here you will learn how to catalog and post process your images after taking them including organizational file management, post capture processing and image adjustment, and output options. While we will be working exclusively with Lightroom, the information and methodology learned here will prove to be invaluable regardless of the digital darkroom software you choose for your own use.
In the program, we will take daily field trips into the beautiful Swan Valley capturing some of its unique grandeur via photography. Each day will be a full day, regardless of the weather. Time will be split between fieldwork, classroom discussion, and computer lab. Review of student imagery is a vital part of the learning process and will also be included. This program is open to all skill levels from beginner through advanced. We will be concentrating on the Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) Camera. Those with point and shoot cameras are also invited to participate although you will not fully appreciate the benefit of all instruction given.
Prerequisites – knowledge of and familiarity with your camera equipment. All cameras are different. Due to time constraints, it is not possible for the instructor to devote limited time trying to figure out for you how your camera works. Therefore it is absolutely MANDATORY that you know how your camera functions and where all of its controls are located before participating in this program.
Bring a lap-top computer with Adobe Photo Lightroom 5 installed – a free, fully functional 30-day trial is available from Adobe.com – just choose language and operating system (Windows/Mac) and click “Download now”
