Continuing Education

214 East 21st Street

This course is designed for students who wish to further their expertise in shooting advertising and editorial narrative and fashion assignments. Students will move beyond exploring lighting concepts to executing their vision through previsualization, research and thorough preparation of their idea in order to build a portfolio. How to create and develop mood boards for a shooting concept will be covered and individual style will be refined. A professional, digital studio environment requires the ability to shoot tethered (into a computer station or laptop). Students will become proficient with Capture One software, which is the standard in professional digital workflow today. The goal is to refine concept-building skills and translate them into a successful photo shoot. Models, equipment and a makeup artist will be provided.
PREREQUISITE: A course in studio photography, or equivalent.
NOTE: This course is held on campus at SVA.
