Learn how to get the most out of
your equipment and develop a keener eye at the same time. The goal
of this course is to teach the amateur photographer how to think and
work like a pro without compromising fun and creativity. This
course condenses 45 years of experiences of three top photographers
working in Shanghai today in the movie, fashion, travel, sports, news,
and advertising industries. At the end of this ten-week course,
photography can even become a job opportunity for the most pro-minded
students. You will gain more confidence and creative sensitivity
as you learn to implement easier and more-efficient methods. On
the budget and technical side, students will get a complete overview of
all necessary equipment, as well as practical advice on how to save
money and make the decisions that are right for you. We will
simplify questions of film type, camera operation, shutter speeds,
apertures, focal lengths, and reading your light meter. Nobody
will be left behind. All techniques from manual camera controls to
digital post-production enhancement are included, as well as the
hardware and software skills you need for uploading and producing
outstanding digital photographs.
On the human side, you will
discover some exclusive and constructive advice to prepare you for photo
shoots, including filling your bag and choosing your gear like a pro.
Out in the field, you will know how to move, to get in touch with
people, and make the most out of the subject you are willing to shoot.
On the creative side, both professional photography lectures and
hands-on workshops provide valuable insights into frame composition,
using accessories, and lighting controls. On the whole, you will
learn to resolve technical, aesthetic, and conceptual issues while
creating a personal project through a series of images processed on
computer and viewed on the classroom projector within a supportive
environment. Students should bring a working camera that can be
switched to manual with a built-in light meter to the first session, or
be prepared to purchase (or borrow) one after consultation with the
instructor. While filling in the entry form, don't forget to
indicate the camera type you are working with: reflex or compact,
digital or film. This course will also include a course handbook
which can be taken with you at the end of ten weeks.
