1670 - Advanced Studio Lighting Techniques

Course Description

Building on the techniques learned in Studio Lighting, this course further explores the art of using artificial light to transform the mundane into the magnificent. Using lighting as a form of expression, we experiment with complex lighting schemes in an effort to create more visually stimulating images. Emphasis is placed on controlling direction, quality and quantity of light as we investigate the impact of light, color and composition on the subject. Intended for photographers seeking to broaden their knowledge of artificial lighting, this course is primarily studio based and focuses on still life, architectural and portrait lighting, including a look into product photography and photographing the nude. We also learn techniques for utilizing available light, as well as on-camera flashes.
