Description
Have you always wanted to learn photography but had no idea where to go or where to start from?
Have you always wanted to understand your DSLR or Mirrorless camera and learn how to shoot in the Manual Mode?
Or maybe you have tried learning on your own through YouTube or blogs but got tired of jumping from one video to another without actually learning everything from A to Z in one place?
Well then you've come to the right place. The days of painfully researching stuff on your own are over because this course puts everything together in ONE PLACE.
We start from learning the basic settings and functions that every beginner should know. These are shown through a lot of demos and exercises which facilitate practical learning of the subject.
Once you have the basics down, we move to the more advanced and technical part related to the learning the manual mode. Here we spend a lot of time on learning the three important settings that form a part of any type of photography - Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO. There are dedicated and comprehensive sections for each of these settings that break them down into simple steps through demos, exercises and actual image examples.
Once manual mode is done, we go on and learn about the some advanced settings and functions that make photography easier and stress free so you won't slow down when it comes to applying the manual mode. This is a vital section since this will take the fear out of photography and make you fall in love with it because what you'll find is that even on the manual mode, you are shooting as quickly and easily as people do on the automatic mode.
We learn about the different important accessories like the tripod through multiple exercises and demos that show you its importance.
Finally, we'll be rounding things off by learning some of the basics of editing and post-processing in Snapseed Mobile app and Photoshop.
This is a one-stop photography course which covers everything you need to know if you are starting out. I have come up with a very efficient way of teaching so you can avoid anything that is not necessary in actually producing good shots and more importantly, doing this course will ensure you don't jump around from one video to another on YouTube trying to learn and figure out everything on your own.
I hope I get a chance to teach you this beautiful art and see you inside this course :)
Who this course is for:
