Photography 16-19 Workshop

This beginner’s course will teach you the basic functions on your camera and how to apply them to creative effect.

Week by week a new technique will be taught with hands on guidance from the tutor. You will be introduced to methods that allow you to do the following.

• Using focus in a creative way.
• Create images where the subject is in focus and the background is blurry (for better portraits)
• Create images that are sharp across the entire image (for better landscapes).
• Taking close up (macro) photographs.
• Literally painting with light, using a torch to make patterns in a photograph.
• Change the colour in your photographs.
• Improving your composition or framing of photographs.
• Apply finishing touches in Photoshop to make your images better.
