With the web becoming ever-more important to retailers and photo shoots turning increasingly in to “stories”, we have identified a gaping, yawning skills gap in the repertoire of our customers: camera and lighting techniques for moving image.
It’s not all about flash anymore….! Now you need to know continuous lighting too…. and camera grips, pulling zooms, sound. It’s a mystery to many, but not any more with this fab course designed specifically for photographers by award-winning cameraman, Jonathan Harrison.
We have come up with the ideal one day training course to plug the skills gap. Our moving image lighting & camera workshop gives you the opportunity to learn creative techniques for handling the latest cameras and lighting for video.
With the web gaining ever more strength and cameras such as the Canon 5D ll taking off, we have 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.
The course will be run by an award winning lighting cameraman Jonathan Harrison who is highly experienced in demonstrating lighting and shooting both technically and creatively. It will be an intensive ‘hands-on’ one day course in our SE1 studio and will include tungsten, HMI fresnel, Par, Kino Flo and LED lighting equipment as well as all the latest in video DSLR camera technology from Canon.

> Dear Jonathan
>
> I just wanted to convey my thanks for an excellent presentation yesterday , I'm sure we all got a great deal out of the day .
>
> I think the most important element was a "reality check" on the pitfalls of shooting moving imagery in comparison with stills work.
>
> As you said there's no way of packing 20 yrs of experience into 6 hrs but hopefully those of us who value our professional reputations will tread with care .
>
> I also think the thorough presentation of continous lighting source options - even for those of us who already use tungsten was invaluable.
>
I would certainly be interested in a follow on course that explains the workings of Final Cut Pro / Express
>
> Thanks again & hopefully speak again soon.
