The most amazing deal of the year
If you want to get the most amazing deal for your photography, I think the 5daydeal is exactly that.
Every year they deliver the goods and also this year the deal is jam-packed with awesome tutorials, e-books, filters, presets and software.
The problem with a global shutter that a lot of people will miss
So what's the big deal with a global shutter?
In short....
There is no real limit anymore.
You would be able to shoot strobes up to 1/16000 or even 1/80000 when using Sony compatible strobes.
Sounds awesome right?
And it is, but there is one limit I have to tell you about that will prevent some nasty surprises.
Calibrations demystified
A lot of people ask me which profile to use when opening files in Photoshop from Lightroom, the monitor profile or the camera profile?
Well both are wrong, how weird it might sound, you can't use any of them.
A step by step workshop with Nadine and using Geekoto strobes outside
Probably one of the first questions people ask when they want to know more about my workshops.
And let's immediately take the bull by the horns, it sometimes seems everyone is teaching workshops and the quality is often not what people expect. A guided photoshoot is not a workshop.
Colors and how they connect
You probably have been hearing me say that a lot.
And that's because color is incredibly important to give images/video/film a certain mood. But also for logo's, design, cars, buildings, interiors, clothing, colors are used everywhere to get a feeling, or make you feel a certain way.
So for us as content creators it's vital to make sure that our designs, photos, videos etc. all look accurate.
So when someone orders a red scarf and a red sweater they look the same as in the brochure or website.
Luckily this is pretty easy.
Geekoto softboxes compared: results from the Digital Classroom with Jannaika
In todays blog the results from the Digital classroom episode with Jannaike in which I explained the differences between softboxes.
Do remember that these were shot during a live broadcast with loads of ambient light so it's a bit harder to set the light perfectly.
But I'm very happy with the results.
That setting that drives you nuts during the calibration process on Mac (and windows)
Even with easy software it's sometimes easy to get an error that... well you can't fix.
You checked everything, and although you know your brand new monitor should really be perfect, it's far from.
Or maybe you don't know how to read the rapports and just wonder why there is so much fuzz about professional monitors.
The difference between modifiers
Want to know how to predict your light?
And of course how to use the different modifiers to create some images with impact?
Than this is the digital classroom for you.
In almost 2 hours I show you the difference between a lantern, normal softbox, striplights and our new Geekoto Quicky softbox.
