This workshop is designed to help you follow a creative brief/concept, improve your beauty/portrait lighting skills and learn camera settings and shooting techniques – including tethered shooting and editing with Capture One, to achieve that commercial look. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN How to work with a creative team – makeup artist, hairstylist, stylist. Differences between light shapers and their effects and uses. Using backgrounds and sets for effect. Fashion and beauty lighting techniques for creative portraits. Model direction and posing. How to compose for shooting a magazine cover. Camera settings, exposure, composition and lens choice. How to work and communicate successfully with your creative team. Tethered shooting using Capture One – and its benefits for a comprehensive workflow. ON THE DAY The session starts at 11:30am; we will dive straight into our first set-up, following a brief to shoot a basic beauty campaign for a magazine cover. Small group sizes mean plenty of hands-on shooting experience – and personal one-to-one guidance and direction from Wayne Johns. After a short lunch break, it’s straight back into the studio for the second session of creative themed portraits on a creative set. We then dive into some basic editing with David Grover and Capture One. Day finishes at around 5:30pm, with a debrief, a review of your best image and Q&A session.
