Description

Still life Styling and Photography with Heirloom Objects, Ephemera & Flea Market Finds

Vintage objects have stories to tell. Whether they belonged to a special family member or were found at a flea market they can be arranged into meaningful compositions that recall another time and place. This online class will discuss the art of storytelling through still life photography and work on techniques for creating beautiful object portraits for use as a selling tool, gift, tribute, or art piece.

In this course, students are encouraged to experiment with various photographic methods, including alternative processes, film, or digital photography. This course consists of a PowerPoint presentation, a demonstration of home set up, backdrop considerations, and composition techniques. An assignment will be provided to be submitted and critiqued during the second session.

Please note that this is a creative rather than technical class and is best suited for students with an understanding of their cameras and lighting.

Remote Learning

This course is available for "remote" learning and will be available to anyone with access to an internet device with a microphone (this includes most models of computers, tablets). Classes will take place with a "Live" instructor at the date/times listed below.

Upon registration, the instructor will send along additional information about how to log-on and participate in the class.
