Video description
This innovative product uses interactive video to explain how
to manage camera exposure, a topic many photographers don't fully
understand. Exposure settings have tremendous impact on the overall
brightness and contrast of an image and ultimately its quality.
Viewers will learn how to optimize exposure and maximize detail,
minimize noise, and create the best images possible. This workshop
begins with an overview of key exposure concepts, then discusses
various exposure modes and some advanced concepts and techniques to
help viewers master the concepts and practice of photographic
exposure. It also covers some post-processing techniques related to
exposure and includes some real-world examples that review core
exposure concepts. Experienced instructor Tim Grey presents more
than 3 hours of exceptional quality video tutorials, complete with
lesson files, assessment quizzes, and review materials. The video
is wrapped in a unique interface that allows the viewer to jump to
any topic and also bookmark individual sections for later review.
The unique Watch-and-Work mode shrinks the video into a small
window to allow the student to work alongside the instructor.
Project files used in the lessons are included on the disc so
viewers can practice what they've learned, and interactive review
questions help reinforce freshly gained knowledge.
