The Visual Studies Platform and CEU Library’s Media Hub are pleased to announce two photography workshops in the spring semester, led by Visiting Professor, Photographer, Daniel Halasz. The introductory workshop is designed to help you improve your photographic skills and get the most out of our equipment, while the advanced workshop is tailored for those already pursuing a long-term visual project.
1. Introduction to Digital Photography (2 Sessions)
* Dates: Wednesday, April 10 & April 17, 17:30 – 19:00
In this beginner-friendly hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the fundamental concepts of photography and digital editing. Topics covered include cameras, lenses, exposure triangle, and file formats. During the second session, you will learn how to use Adobe Lightroom Classic for image management and editing, covering everything from importing and organizing your images to making tonal and color adjustments, performing basic retouches, and exporting your final creations. By the end of this workshop, you’ll have the tools and knowledge needed to create images ready for sharing online and printing.
Upon completion of a training session, attendees will receive authorization to reserve and use the edit stations and/or check out equipment for producing project materials relevant to their academic pursuits or research endeavors. Please note that only 12 spots are available.
