Want an exciting and challenging career? Learn to light and take photographs as the pros do using different types of lighting and props while incorporating your ideas and design. Which lens to use, and the appropriate lighting and equipment for different situations are all part of being a knowledgeable photographer. With an emphasis on advertising photography, this course will give you the needed experience in studio and location environments. Using medium format DSLR 35/120mm cameras, students will shoot ads (still-life/fashion/products), as well as create ads using live models.
