After becoming proficient using one light, the logical next step is multiple light setups. This is where things get real interesting, real fast. This is exactly where we'll go, deep into 2, 3, 4, maybe 5 or 6 light setups. Beyond the lights, there are choices in modifiers, reflectors, and a host of other tools that can be used to create your images.
This is an advanced workshop on studio lighting techniques. Attendees should be beyond lighting
fundamentals, but are not required to be well versed in using multiple lights. This is a full day of shooting, experimenting, and learning. Our studio setting will have a variety of lights, modifiers, reflectors, and props. Attendees will have the opportunity to submit scenarios they would like to create. We'll pick a few of those, along with some carefully selected to provide a broad
demonstration of practical lighting techniques. Bring your camera, a couple lenses, and a light meter if you have one. No need for a computer, other than to take notes. Our focus is on teaching you how to get the shot right in camera, so you don't have to "fix it in post". Proper metering, lighting placement and modifier selection, ratios, tricks, all will be explained. Be ready to have a great time, have lots of fun, and learn a lot.
