Time-Lapse Photography/Travel Photography ($50 for both / $25 each)
Saturday, April 25 / 9am-4:30pm
Instructor: L. Tackett
Time-Lapse Photography: 9am-12:30pm
You see time-lapse photography all the time on TV and in movies these days. Think fast moving clouds, a quickly setting/rising sun, the Milky Way moving rapidly across the screen or a flower blooming before your eyes in a matter of seconds. All of these effects are created by taking a series of still images over a period of time and combing them in a video that can reduce minutes or hours of real time into several seconds of video, allowing you to compress time. This course will cover all aspects of this technique from shooting the original images to combining them in a finished video.

Travel Photography: 1-4:30pm
Many of us love to travel and document our adventures through photography and video. While equipment will be discussed it does not matter what type of camera you use – a smart phone works as well as a DSLR or another camera. This course is about the art of travel photography and how to produce the best images you can no matter what equipment you have. It’s all about showing your vision of a destination, whether near or far away.
