LLART 174 - Introduction to Studio Lighting

Learn the basics of studio lighting in this hands-on class. Beginning with a simple and affordable one-light setup that can be used in a home studio, instruction will advance to a complex, multiple-light set. In the process, you will gain an understanding of the differences in lighting modifiers (umbrellas, softboxes, reflectors, grids, etc.) and when to use them. The first two meetings will be demonstrations; week three, you will have the opportunity to photograph a model in the studio using your own camera. Prerequisite: A film or digital SLR and Mirrorless System cameras equipped with a hot shoe, and Nuts and Bolts (LLART 193), Digital Photography I (LLART 115) or take our quiz: go to www.lifelong.utah.edu or call 801-587-5433.
