Postponed until 2009
The Journey of Light Series : In the Beginning (ITB)
Location : TBD

based on the feedback we received from our first ever workshop, we are making it even better.

the ITB workshop will cover lighting basics including light theory and physics, color temperature, color balance, TTL vs manual settings, ambient vs strobe. inexpensive lighting alternatives and how you can get great results wtihout having to buy expensive gear.

we'll answer all those questions you have been asking yourself with topics such as white balance (what exactly do those icons mean?), color balancing (why do my photos look green?), color temperature (why do my photos look orange?), inverse square law (huh?), gels, diffusers, bounce, direct, ambient, strobe, reflectors, scrims. should i shoot manual? program? auto? raw? jpg? ttl? f2.8 or f11?

and that is all packed into the first session.

PLUS...
in the other two sessions, we will be adding more flash demos and diagramming that will illustrate the physics and theories presented in the first session so you can 'see' how the physics and theory are applied to flash photography first hand and learn how to get the most out of your camera flash.

and of course there is the class assignment, where you get to go out and practice what you just learned. and at the end of the day, you'll select your best pics and we'll have an in-class critique and prizes!!!

while there is no perfect answer for any question, we hope to give you more insight and information so that you can not only make the best possible choice for any given situation to get your desired result, but also make it faster and with more confidence so that you can get it right in the camera and not have to rely on software to 'fix' your photos.

this class is about understanding light, how the camera functions and how to 'see' better pictures.
