In this two-day lighting workshop, students will be introduced to the Principles of Light (quality, intensity, direction, color) and work in groups to create partner portraits that demonstrate these principles. The workshop will start with a lecture on the Principles of Light, then move to a demonstration on how to use strobe lights, hot lights, and basic grip equipment (c-stands, backgrounds, clamps, etc.) and basic safety procedures. Students will then work at different lighting stations to gain hands-on experience using studio equipment and creating portraits using soft and hard lighting.
