Photography Basics
3-5 Participants
This 6-hour workshop will begin by discussing the fundamental pillars of photography; aperture, shutter speed, focal length, format (sensor size), and colour temperature. These concepts will be accompanied by illustrations in order to help the participants gain a practical understanding of the concepts. Once these concepts are explained we will apply them all in a studio setting using a current industry standard DSLR camera, and each participant will have a chance to fill each role on set (Photographer, lighting technician, subject).

- Hands on experience with a professional DSLR camera
