Gaining access to an audience has never been easier. Gaining access to great gear has never been easier. Is it possible to create polished, powerful content without the gear everyone else seems to be using?<\/p>\n
Absolutely.<\/p>\n
In this interactive workshop, we\u2019ll discuss lighting and audio techniques with hands-on practice, allowing attendees to photograph setups, work with a model for various interview styles, and collaborate with the instructor on production and equipment setup.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Planning production will also include an overview of equipment that best-suits the needs of the production. \u00a0Not all gear works for all types of capture scenarios!<\/p>\n
Lighting \u2013 Experience portable lighting equipment that doesn\u2019t break the bank yet while providing big budget quality, and experience a variety of guaranteed setups, built for speed and flexibility. \u00a0 Attendees will assist and direct lighting setup with the instructor. Attendees will also learn to set up custom lighting \u201cpresets\u201d with certain brands of lighting product. We\u2019ll be working with standard setups, but greater focus is placed on \u201cthis scenario is very different, how do I make it work?\u201d adding cucoloris (cookies), ad-hoc adjustments, and how to rapidly adapt in changing scenarios.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Microlighting \u2013 This session will also highlight \u201cMicrolighting\u201d techniques, using small battery-powered, backpackable lighting systems, and how they\u2019re applied in various setups as production tools, but also creative lighting for backgrounds, product shots, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Audio – Dive into this workshop where attendees will experience various microphones and learn where\/how to use them. \u00a0We will zero in on best practices for the various types of microphones and their specific use cases, including some of the challenges with wireless systems. \u00a0
