PhotographySchool.NL is happy to announce that the Advanced Photography Course will run in April 2013. The Advanced Photography Course is made up of five modules which can be taken all in one period or over multiple periods. Each module is designed to make sure you truly understand the photographic element of focus and to provide you with real-world opportunities to practise that knowledge.
On the Advanced Course you will be moving out of the studio and into everyday situations like sports events, the beach and breathtaking Dutch landscapes, in order to apply the skills you have learned. There will also be an added emphasis on photo critiques and getting the most out of printing your images.
The Modules
Composition – You’ve got the rule of thirds down to a fine art but now you are looking for a new way to shape your subject and add creativity to your images. In the composition module we will do just that. This module is made up of a 3 ½ hour session in the studio followed by homework and online feedback of your assignment images.
Shutter Speed – You know how to control shutter speed and the impact on your photos that it makes but need more opportunities to practise what you know and get those dynamic photos you are after. The shutter speed module will help you to do this through one evening of theory, followed by an excursion to photograph a sports event. After that is a further evening to review and critique the images that the group managed to catch. Homework and online feedback are also part of this module.
Aperture – In love with aperture-priority or totally hate it? Either way, the aperture module is going to have you taking advantage of your f-stops. After one evening of theory, we will be hitting the ground to visit some beautiful Dutch landscapes. Whether you want to focus on the details or catch the full view is completely up to you. We will follow the excursion up with a second evening to review and critique the images that the group has taken. Homework and online feedback are also part of this module.
Exposure – We will cover everything you ever wanted to know about exposure in this module. Starting with a theory session in the studio we will then move outside, where the ever changing conditions will put your exposure knowledge to the test. Homework and online feedback follow the day portion of this module.
Light – Spend two evenings in the studio working with the studio lights to become comfortable and inspired by light. Evening one will include some theory before you head off to the studio. Evening two will start back in the studio before looking at the results as a group. In-between the two evenings will be the opportunity for some homework and online feedback, ensuring you are getting the most out of your time in the studio.
