Urban Portraiture with Jason Light ABIPP - November

Join us on Tuesday 6 November for an Urban Portraiture with Jason Light ABIPP.

Copyright: Jason Light ABIPP
Jason has a refreshing approach to urban portraiture which relies on using one light source, which could be anything from a single speedlight through a white umbrella or a grid spot, to using two speedlites through a large softbox. This method not only allows him to shoot quickly in terms of setting up, but gives him time to talk to and get to know his subjects. He always works on location using the minimum amount of equipment, and he shoots mainly everything in manual mode without using a light meter.

Jason will share his distinctive approach during this practical workshop which will take place on location in Maidstone. He will cover such aspects as getting the flash off camera and methods by which this can be achieved, and the use of umbrellas and a softbox to produce innovative and original images.

A practical afternoon (2pm-5pm) creating location portraiture in an urban setting.

Moving Image Course - 25 September - Special Offer to BIPP Members



Moving Image Course - 25 September 2012 - Special Offer To BIPP Members

With the web gaining ever more strength and cameras such as the Canon 5D MkIII taking off, Direct Photographic has noticed an increasing demand from photographers wishing to expand their knowledge when creating moving images on shoots. Perhaps it’s a “behind the scenes” segment from a fashion shoot to go up on a clients website, or a short cut from a portrait sitting, but whatever the situation, video skills are becoming essential for the working photographer.

In answer to this Direct Photographic has devised the Moving Image Course, which is an intensive ‘hands-on’ one day lighting and camera workshop taking place in their professional London studio and includes Tungsten, HMI Fresnel, Par, Kino Flo and LED lighting equipment as well as all the latest in video DSLR camera technology from Canon.

They are offering places on their next Moving Image Course on 25 September 2012 to BIPP members with a 20% discount on a first-come, first-served basis, as spaces are limited.
