Shutter Speed Creativity: Tower Bridge, London

Jill North

Night Photography, Light Trails and Shutter Speed Creativity: Tower Bridge, London

Do you want to take your digital camera out of automatic mode? Then this workshop is for you. You will be taught how to control the functions of the camera so that you can take full creative control of your image making (your camera must have a manual mode which allows you to adjust the Shutter Speed, Aperture & ISO (you can check this online or in the instructions that came with your camera).

SONY nominated photographer, videographer & fashion show producer, Dan Harley ( Dan Harley Photography / Live Fashion Official) will take you through the fundamentals of manually controlling your DSLR using a series of unique analogies he has developed

The workshop will take place at the iconic Old Spitalfields Market in Shoreditch, where, using the market as our learning arena, we will cover Shutter Speed, Aperture, ISO, Focus, Depth of Field, White Balance & Composition

Dan has shot hundreds of shows from some of the biggest Fashion Week runways around the world, both backstage & front of house, where the pressure is on to make the shot for the client & says "It's all about having control of your camera as the principles of image making are the same whether you are shooting Fendi ft Karl Lagerfeld at Milan Fashion Week or taking candid shots at Old Spitalfields Market... & the good news is; it's a lot easier than you think!"

You will be taking lots of photographs on this workshop to demonstrate each aspect mentioned above, and as an additional bonus, everyone who takes the workshop will get the chance to have one of their photographs included in an exhibition staged at Spitalfields Market later in the year.

How to Use Your DSLR Camera - 1 to 1 Beginners Photography

Tristan 

This class is aimed to give children from all backgrounds  a chance to experiment, have fun and get creative in abstract artist Georgie Mason's studio on Stepney City Farm.  The classes are grouped into different age-groups, please book relevant date:

29.7.24 > 9-12 year olds
19.8.24   > 4-8 year olds

[Georgie] (https://www.georgiemason.co.uk/childrens-workshops) believes learning to explore and follow one's intuition from a young age is crucial to a healthy and rich development into adulthood. This class provides a safe space for children to get messy, meet others, be in a rural environment and most importantly, be themselves :)

The class is 1.5 hours long and begins with a wander round the farm, sketching things we see including the animals. Then we will head into the studio and start with some warm up exercises - for example expressive mark making to various different styles of music, collaborative pieces aka 'Squiggle Drawings', and drawing each other without taking the pen off the page - all great ice-breakers :)

Then we will work on a larger collaborative piece inspired by the farm - either the animals or the plants/trees. Finally we will each work on our own piece inspired by what we've learnt.  Children will be able to take home a final piece that they have created.

Georgie has taught art to children for over 10 years in various locations across the UK. She loves working with kids and is hugely inspired by their energy and imagination.  She looks forward to welcoming your children to the studio.

To find out more about Georgie and join her community online, follow her on instagram [here] (https://www.instagram.com/georgiesmason/?hl=en).

At Georgie Mason Studio we're committed to making art accessible for all. If you can't pay full price please just email us at info@georgiemason.co.uk to say what you can afford at this time.


Paint on a Farm for Children

Sarah

Children's Paint on a Farm Workshop

How to Compose a Beautiful Photograph - 1 to 1 Beginners Photography

Lindsay

For all budding street photographers this class will give you some practical tips in how to get started in street photography.

In this beginners class you are invited to bring just one lens, a prime lens. A 50mm, known as the nifty fifty, would be ideal, or else whatever alternative you have. Prime lenses are ideal for street photography as they're lightweight and more discrete. If you only have a zoom lens then you'll need to be strict with yourself and use it on just one focal length!

As the quality of zoom lenses improves, we are often over-reliant on them and on zooming in and out to compose a shot. This can make us a bit lazy and we can also end up with way too many shots that we haven't put much thought into. Today we're going to move ourselves rather than the lens to get the best composition and pay attention to the smaller details of everyday life, as we take to the streets of Camden Town (or alternative suitable location), learning how to take those candid street photography shots.

Auto-Focus and Metering Modes,
Depth of Field (DOF),
White Balance,
Lighting with Speedlight,

Introduction to product photography for social media

Javier Callejas

On this workshop, you'll learn how to shoot posed portraits.

I'll show you how to interact with your subject to get them comfortable to give you the 'look' you're after or get them to work with you so you can figure out what that 'look' is as you shoot.

You'll learn how to use natural light & artificial light to light your portraits & I'll show you how light placement can have a dramatically different effect on the mood of your portrait depending how you use it & where you place it

We'll be using a couple of LED lights & reflectors to demonstrate different 'looks' & I'll also show you a few of my favourite setups using combinations of natural & artificial light sources.

You will be taking lots of photographs during this workshop & will have lots of examples in your camera to use as reference points for your own future portrait shoots including photographs of each lighting setup so you can easily re-create specific 'looks' that you liked.

Looking forward to seeing you on the Portrait Workshop at Old Spitalfields Market!
