DESCRIPTION:

This is not just a photography workshop, but a start to finish conception to creation collaborative instruction.

We start with a concept and learn how to:

  1. Visualize an idea through story boarding and map out a timeline.
  2. Take ordinary items and turn them into elaborate costuming and props.
  3. Market and acquire clients for your stylized photo shoot.
  4. Properly light subjects for the entire scene, create the best angles and perspectives, and
    match elements and color harmony.
  5. Take the image into photoshop for a full lesson on fine art compositing and stylized finish
    choices and embellishments.
  6. Use PS Mixer brush to finish the image with an Illustrative look.
  7. Sell fine art prints to your retail clients and commercial clients.

 

ITINERARY:

Day 1: We will start off with a project demo on what we will create from start to finish. Then we will show attendees how to put the elements together to create costumes and props.

Each attendee will have the opportunity to get dressed in costume and be photographed to be used in Individual concept images, as well as a full class movie poster design. This is optional for each attendee and we will offer other images for you to use as well.

Day 2 and 3: We will take the images created and turn them into unique fine art masterpieces through various Photoshop techniques and compositing.

Attendees will leave this workshop with an arsenal of tools, actions and techniques to take every image from your studio to the next level. This is also an excellent opportunity to experience what your clients and models feel during the photo session. It will help each attendee to get better at directing subjects in front of camera.

Attendees will learn the full process of conceptualizing, lighting, photographing, editing, compositing and embellishing from start to finish.
