More lights, more refinement, and more creativity because look, now that you guys understand all the basic techniques, the gear, the lighting, the balance techniques and so forth that we’ve used so far. Now, this is all about taking the step further. We’re going to go into refinement. We’re going to start by talking more and giving case studies unnatural versus dramatic light and how to get there. What those differences are in actual case studies.
We’re going through over filling and refining existing light. Basically, adding a little bit of on-camera flash and using these techniques only to refine light that’s already good, but not quite great.
We’ll be covering multi-point light bounce setups. Basically, it was just a complex way I came up of saying, we’ll be bouncing of not one, not two, but up to three bounce points. Essentially what we’re doing is we’re doing a single on-camera flash to simulate the look of a two or three light setup.
We’ll be covering coloring light for corrective effect and then we’re going to go into coloring light for creative effect. In each one of this, we’ll give you full on examples. We’re going to teach you how we got the specific shots and it’s going to be an absolute blast.
