This class engages intermediate / advanced photographers in a thorough investigation of lighting a variety of subjects using available light, continuous light, studio strobes and portable flash on location as well as in the studio. Moving beyond a basic understanding of lighting, students explore setups and techniques used in editorial and commercial work. Demonstrations using tungsten lights and electronic flash equipment address color balance, contrast control, and direction of light. Through discussions on metering, exposure, and film types, students learn how to produce their desired effects. Students explore a variety of lighting strategies using single, multiple, and mixed sources and learn to modify lighting using diffusion, reflectors, snoots, projectors, spots, and umbrellas.
