Do You have a New Year's Resolution to improve your camera skills? This course is designed to help you build or refresh your basic camera skills. Each week we meet in the Mac computer lab at Pacific Grove Adult School for 3 hours and focus on your camera skills. The first one + hour we look at everyone's assignment from the previous week and make constructive comments on the images, how to improve the skill and clarify any questions the students may have. This includes quick edits of images to show how post production is so powerful.
The second 1 + hour we learn a new photography concept in a casual lecture with time for Q&A. Classes are small (6-10) and allow for plenty of time for each student to ask questions.
The following photographic concepts are covered to give the student who wants to get off of full Auto once in awhile, the freedom to do so. You will need a camera and your manual, a tripod is suggested but not necessary, cable release, thumb or flash drive for your assignments.
1. Aperture Priority
2. Shutter Priority and ISO
3. Depth of Field and Focal Length
4. Color Temperature
5. Composition
6. Auto Focus
7. Field Trip to a local favorite site as a class
8. Weekly assignment to reenforce the concepts discussed
