SUMMARY:Basic Photography with Rollence Patugan (In-Person Learning - Six Sessions)
DESCRIPTION:In-Person Learning\nIn this beginning workshop\, students will learn all the controls and functions on their digital cameras (DSLR or Mirrorless)\, basic camera operation (including f-stop\, shutter speed and ISO)\, fundamental concepts of photography\, and how to control the photograph's final look. Discussions include composition and light\, how to get the background in or out of focus\, how to stop or blur motion\, why to use one ISO over another\, when to use a tripod\, and how to use the camera's light meter to provide the best exposure. Other topics covered include using the appropriate lens for a desired effect (the difference between a prime lens and a zoom lens)\, how to hold the focus on a subject if changing camera positions (exploring auto focus modes and manual focus)\, and how to properly hold the camera.\n\nDigital camera technology will be covered thoroughly\, such as how to adjust the camera's white balance\, how to view and delete images\, the difference between shooting RAW and JPEG\, choosing the appropriate memory card\, and how to transfer the image from the camera to a computer. The goal is to provide each participant with the technical information needed to operate his or her digital SLR camera properly and with the confidence and ability to shoot consistently in manual mode.\n\nStudents will work in both black-and-white and color while learning how to "see" in the chosen mode. Weekly assignments will be given followed by critiques during the next class session.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nRollence Patugan is a commercial as well as a fine-art photographer who has been a recurring exhibitor for Month of Photography Los Angeles\, Smashbox Studios\, and City of Brea Art Gallery. He uses both digital and analog formats while taking advantage of today's technologies by incorporating them into his photography. He is a faculty member of the Santa Monica College Photography Department and is very happy to share his creative and technical skills to students at the Los Angeles Center of Photography.\n\nView instructor profile here.
