Workshop Synopsis:

This workshop will help you put at rest any fear you have about the technicalities of a DSLR camera and using the 'MANUAL' mode. At the end of the workshop, you will be outfitted with adequate operational know-how which – combined with your zest for photography – will take you to heights you never dreamed of.

The workshop begins with a step-by-step method of familiarizing you with the controls of your camera. The instructor will explain photography jargon and patiently take you through the process of choosing between the different modes available, selecting the correct exposure and the right settings in your camera. You are then taught about different lenses, techniques of lighting and how each step complements the other in producing a good photograph.

 

Once you get the hang of the technicalities, the instructor will share with you tips and tricks of composition to help you take pictures that draw admiration from family and friends. To add to that, an introduction to basic lighting techniques and indoor portraiture under studio lights will help you understand how professionals shoot such striking photos.

Practice makes perfect and keeping that in mind, you are given enough time to practice with the world-class facilities of PhotoIndia's studios and setup. At the end of the workshop, instructors review shots taken by you and outline specific areas that you need to work on.
