About the course
It's your chance to dive deep into all details of the shooting and work with models. All lessons already recorded.
Offline workshop is needed to create your own portfolio, this is its only plus.
Based on my own experience, I can say that learning online is much more effective than offline, you better and more thoroughly perceive the information, a huge plus is the opportunity to watch the moments you are interested a several times, and almost completely absorb the information, which is simply impossible at an offline event.
Why should you take this course and why it make sense to attend online?
✅ you are not disturbed by other students and people in the frame during the shooting process
✅ you see the whole process of shooting in detail by my eyes through mine cameras
✅ you see the location of the photographer and models relative to the light from the side
✅ you get my photos from the shooting and compare them with the moment of the process when they were captured
✅ learn to create color from scratch and find harmony in it

"Hi Dan!
I just finished watching all sections!
Bravo!
It was very well paced and rich with information and great instruction. Every section was valuable. My biggest surprise was your first on theory. Discussing your philosophy and inspiration from classic artists was very interesting. My degree is in graphic design, art not as much. I will now be studying more closely the Renaissance painters to begin.
The shooting section was very helpful your use of natural light and positioning of models. The model directing was great.
Your LR editing is really very clever and I admire your vision... Obviously. Your explanation and use of the LR "color wheel" was a great way of looking at LR. I have completely neglected the camera calibration section in my work.
I also use Imagenomic and NIK plugins. I also use ON1 for similar NIK effects. Now with Google dropping NIK, I'm looking to alternatives but do hope NIK is acquired by someone and continues to be supported. Your work in PS is also very clever. I had been doing far too much in PS the "hard way" while not utilizing LR with the RAW files.
I'll be re-watching all as there was so much useful material. Great job to you, models and crew! Technical glitches did not distract.
I also appreciate your kindness getting me links. I do hope I can get a workshop setup for you here. I am going to try to make the NYC workshop in December.
When I re-watch, I'll pay attention for useful feedback for you. I will say, your skill with directing models was very useful, would like to learn more here. Look forward to the finished video and RAW file to practice with.
Thank you for sharing so much! I'm inspired to shoot, experiment in LR and... study some art history.
I hope there will be more online workshops,
Kind regards,
Doug
ps. Your English is great, no problems with that.
I thought that was a great session, even despite the delays. What I liked in particular is that you addressed a wide range of issues, from art theory to technical retouching. I didn't necessarily understand everything the first time, but it really opened my eyes to a lot of issues and I will definitely go back again.
I do plan to purchase some presets and I would also appreciate the RAW file. Please let me know how to access the discount.
And I look forward to the workshop in Barcelona and to any other online events.
Thank you,
Fred
Apologies for the late feedback, had a busy week.
Your video course was very informative and helpful. I am glad that I purchased it as I have learn useful information from it. :)
Here are my good points:
1. Video quality and audio was good and clear. I am able to listen to what Dan was teaching.
2. Lots of useful information that was shared in the video & cannot be found on the internet!!
3. I like the structure & flow of the video course, from the origins of Art photography to shooting to post-processing. The usage of Telegram to ask questions in real time is good as well.
4. Seeing how Dan works with 3 models was an eye-opener, not many photographers, including myself have work with 3 nude models at the same time.
5. Really appreciate the 3 RAW files for the post-training. Could tell the quality of Pentax camera is really good.
6. The thing about Dan is that even at a master level of photography skills and experience, he is still very humble and is willing to teach and wants his students to improve. Really different from other photographers and this quality makes him stands out.
That is all from me. Looking forward to your next workshop in Asia or your next live video tutorial.
Till then, keep shooting, keep inspiring. :)
Regards
