Basic studio lighting seminar
When: April 13 Friday (5:30pm to 9:30pm), April 14 Saturday (scheduled shoot) and optional Critique session on April 16 Monday (5:30 pm to 7:30 pm)
Where: Unit 602 Cityland 10 Tower 2, H.V. Dela Costa St. Salcedo Village, Makati City, behind RCBC Tower near Shell Gas Station.
Maximum of 9 Participants
Topics:
1. Types of commonly used studio lights
2. Light modifiers
3. Trigerring lights
4. Measuring light
5. Light positions
6. Types of portrait lighting
7. Dealing with models
1st day of seminar will be on discussion of the topics, there will be no shooting to be done. Though there will be a hands-on practice in measuring lights using a flash meter.
2nd day, scheduled shoots for the group (9am, 1pm and 4pm), models will be provided. Participants should only come on their time slot, to avoid over crowding. During the shoot, each participant will be asked to conceptualize a lighting set-up to be done with their model, other participants on the same group will be assisting. After the participant finishes the shoot, other participant on the group will do the same, so the previous participant will now be acting as the assistant. (round robin system)
For the Critique session which will allow fellow students and me to critique ones work, as they say getting better needs one to realize its faults as to make sure to correct it the next possible time. Kindly bring 1 to 2 of your favorite photo from the photo session printed on 5R, ink jet prints on photo paper are acceptable. All photos will be posted together on the wall for viewing. I usually also discuss some questions regarding post processing during these critique sessions.
This guarantees a hands-on set-up, thus learning from actually doing it rather than just listening. This will also make sure that the participant will the only one shooting at the time of his/her set-up, so he/she gets all the needed angles to complete the shoot, no more wrestling for a spot just to get the photo.
Seminar Price is P. 2,500.00 - inclusive of handouts.

Feedback from past students:
“it was more than basic studio lighting! if i were to compare with one of the seminars i’ve been into, i would say “mas sulit” as compared to one of the workshops i’ve taken. you delivered the topics very well and answered our queries very clearly. it felt like you never held back any information that would help us understand proper studio lighting. ”
“I really enjoyed the class & learned valuable lessons! You have simplified the whole lighting issue for us!”
“The format is very effective in teaching us the objectives of the seminar. I now have more confidence in doing a studio photo op in the future.”
“We, getting a try on adjusting the lights and thinking of concept gave me a grasp of what it feels like. You being approachable was also great plus, I didnt hestitate to ask questions. For that, a warm thank you.”
“the hands on for me was really very important and that was for me worth it already”
“Thanks also for your very good approach on conducting the subject. It was straight to the point with emphasis on the actual set up.”
