IOP® are launching the all new Diploma in Photography Lighting course on September 1 2015.
This course is designed to help you master lighting in photography using flash and ambient light. We will teach you how to create incredible images and how to shape and modify light to get the results you want.
You can achieve whatever vision you have for the photograph, whatever the situation or time by using the learning in this course.
All the teaching is done in real world settings – we take the theory and put it into practice in real scenarios so that the practical advice is applied and easy to implement.
We don’t want you to buy expensive equipment – you don’t need it! You probably already own most or all of the kit needed for this course.
Every image you see in the course has been achieved with a single, on-camera hot shoe flash.
So why are we teaching lighting with just one on-camera flash?
– We limit the gear you need to purchase because we feel it is more important to understand the principals of light in photography.
– We look at the quality and colour of light as well as how it can impact an image.
– Understanding light shaping with just one flash is the perfect place to start in understanding lighting as a concept.
We start the course by breaking down all the myths and stigma that comes with using Flash. Many people believe that flash can’t look natural when in reality, natural versus dramatic looking imagery is simply created by adjusting the flash to ambient light balance. IOP® spend time really looking in-depth at how to expose ambient versus flash light.
It’s a myth that using flash is overly complicated and to get great lighting, you need to spend a fortune on kit – you don’t!
Using our innovative video tutorials and practical applications, you can learn the secrets of lighting which will dramatically change your photography forever.
