PDP: Digital Photography
Introduces beginner photographers into the fabulous world of digital imaging. We focus on practical ‘hands on’ shooting with a strong emphasis on camera handling, not sitting in a classroom learning theory. There’s intuitive instruction on photo composition along with everything from viewpoint, angles, lens perspective, aperture, shutter speed, depth of field, ISO setting, white balance and exposure compensation.

PL: Lighting
This course is a perfect mixture of basic and intermediate lighting techniques. It is designed to teach students to accurately manipulate lighting in order to get exact results as well as to make creative studio imagery from portraiture to product. Indor and outdoor lighting will be discussed and experimented with.

PP: Portraiture/Product Photography
You will explore the different types of portraiture. From candid to formal, how to shoot babies, children, families, groups, friends. In the learning process, you will develop your style: whether this is creative and experimental, stylized or formal, in the outdoors or in the controlled environment of a studio. You will learn how to implement creative composition, to understand poses, backdrops, lens perspective, color cast, to make your subject relax, to look for unusual locations, to come up with new ideas, angles, viewpoints, and to shoot for dramatic impact.

Learn also how to take pictures of products to ensure the maximum impact. Learn various tips and tricks that will make the products stand out.

PS: Studio Setup
