Sooner
or later, every photographer thinks about
having their own studio, their own space, where
you can plan and control every step in the
picture making process.
The studio photographer is a different breed.
They don稚 stand passively on the sidelines
recording events as they happen like, say, a
photojournalist. No, the studio photographers
stage their own events. And they do this from
scratch. They start with an image in their
imagination, then using studio techniques and
tools, they carefully and deliberately
recreates that image on film. And they do this
in an environment, which is a designed for one
thing only-making photographs.
In this workshop we値l look at the studio,
especially at lighting for the studio. To
start with, we値l cover some general
principles of studio design, and we値l see
how a basic all-purpose studio should be laid
out. Next, we値l look at studio lighting and
the equipment used to control and manipulate
light. Then we値l cover cameras, tripods and
maintenance
for the studio. And finally, we値l deal with
product and people photography in the
studio. |
