The course is divided into 6 DVD’s
DVD 1 Pro Camera Settings
This DVD explains the key camera settings professional photographers use, often the simple difference between amateur and professional shots.
After you learn these settings you will be able to take the camera off Auto and take control of your photography using manual settings in any situation. Too often your camera’s sensor is fooled by the lighting or maybe you want to try to be more artistic in your photos, this DVD will give you the knowledge no matter what make or brand.
Each setting is backed up by some classroom-based theory and then taken to the street for a practical demonstration - this DVD alone will improve your photography immensely as the right settings are the difference between professional photos all the time as opposed to occasionally getting the right shot.
DVD 2 Landscape and exposure explained
Have you ever wanted to shoot landscapes properly but didn’t know where to start? In this DVD David takes you on a landscape shoot and shows from start to finish exactly what equipment you'll need, the best camera settings and also the optimal time of the day to shoot.
Getting the right exposure is one of the most crucial parts of any photo and this section of the DVD explains the different combinations of F stops, white balance and ISO (sensor sensitivity). Each setting is backed up with an explanation in the classroom and then a practical demonstration in the field.
DVD3 Night and Travel Photography
Taking pictures at night can produce some of the most stunning photos but it can take years to master the right settings. After this DVD you will be able to take night photos confidently and consistently in any type of lighting from dusk till dawn. We take you out on a night shoot to shoot one of Australia’s most photographed landmarks, the Sydney Harbour bridge.
Travel photography is one of the most exciting and interesting types of photography can is often the source of the many mistakes inexperienced photographers make. Here David will teach you how to get the most interesting shots so you can confidently show photographs of your travels to your friends and family instead of leaving them on your camera.
DVD4 Fine Art and Studio Photography
Fine art photographs often sell for a big bucks, but you can learn this skill too. With this knowledge you can decorate your own home or try your hand at selling your photos. David takes you through a complete shoot from start to finish.
Studio photography made easy. David takes you through the exact equipment you need to shoot people and products and explains the different lighting effects and when to use them. After this DVD you will be able to shoot products or people professionally, the type of work professional photographers charge hundreds of dollars to undertake.
DVD 5 Portrait Photography
Inevitably, at some point you will be asked to take someone’s portrait, whether that's someone from your family, a friend or someone famous! Whoever it is, you'll need the skills to create a great portrait.
David takes you through a practical shoot to show you how to get the best portrait and also explains the benefits of black and white photography in portraits. After this DVD you will be confident enough to shoot a great professional portrait, using a few professional techniques that will really make the difference. This could be something as simple as the clothing worn, or specific tips for shooting a group portrait.
DVD 6 Fashion Photography
When David’s not teaching students his forte is fashion. David has shot for many top designers and labels.
Fashion photography has many additional aspects involved rather than just taking the shot. As the photographer, you'll also have to organize and direct the models from start to finish.
David takes you on a fashion shoot in this DVD and goes through each stage from planning the shoot, helping you get your style of shooting, dealing with models, organizing a venue, organizing a team from makeup artists to assistants and the actual shoot.
After this DVD you will confidently be able to shoot fashion at a magazine cover level.
