Sneak peak …..

Ok I have been writing several times about the new instructional DVD we have been working on the last few weeks, and I can now say that we are very close to the “preview” part of the DVD, meaning all the scenes are done in rough edits and will be checked for errors, weird lip-sync problems etc. This will take at least 1-2 weeks more but we hope to be able to send the DVD to the printing/pressing station after that.

In total the DVD will run well over 2 hours and is filled with lots of tips on the use of light meters, posing models, working in outside and inside locations, working with small flash, working with the flash benders from rogue, tether tools, tips about shooting into the sun, using lens flares, using locations to match the models and so much more.
Some of you asked if I had something online from the older DVDs and to be honest somehow we never did, with the new DVD we did go another direction, the previous DVDs were all done with voice overs and although that works great we did get some questions about adding more “live sound” so with this new DVD we did just that. The whole DVD was filmed during the workshop I did in Boston this September so you will see the workshop take place and hear the most important bits as it happened. However we also had two scenes left that were filmed slightly different and we decided to not let them go to waste but add them to the DVD as extra bonus tracks…. these videos are shot without live sound and I added a voice over on top of the video to explain more in depth whats going on in the video and share some tips and tricks. To give people a good idea about the way the previous DVDs look and to give a little bit of a teaser for the new one we will now share one of these bonus videoclips.

PLEASE remember that this is different from the DVD material which was shot live as just explained, it’s just the one of the bonus videos.

      Ook als download per hoofdstuk? Of ben ik dan de gierige Nederlander die op z’n centen zit? 😉

      Geen downloads per hoofdstuk, zou ook niet weten waarom.
      Meestal prijzen we de DVDs rond de 30,00 en deze zal wel wat duurder worden ivm de lengte en de hoeveelheid extra werk, maar de prijs zal zeker onder de 50.00 liggen, dus voor iedereen bereikbaar lijkt me toch ?

      Ik gok zelf op een prijs tussen de 39,95 en 45,00

      Ik vind het zelf altijd wel prettig zoals Lynda, en Kelby training hun downloads opbreken in hoofdstukken. Zo kun je de dingen leren die je wilt weten. 

      Tussen de 40 en 45 is inderdaad een hele mooie prijs.

      Klopt maar dit is duidelijk wat anders 🙂
      Kelby heeft het trouwens ook niet per hoofdstuk, je bent lid van Kelbytraining en kunt dan alles kijken, je kan niet per hoofdstuk aanschaffen.

    frank I was wondering with light meter if you are using different strobes such as Alienbees and you can not program and fstop in how do you make the adjustments you make such as f11 and you set strobes at f8. the Alienbees are in 1/32, 1/16, 1/8,1/4, 1/2, full power?

      Frank Doorhof says:

      that’s no problem at all, just measure and when you’re close enough just move the strobes a little bit to change. Or adjust the aperture if you really need a certain look, often getting within 1/3rd stop is very easy even with these kind of strobes without sacrificing too much of the look.

      hard copy, we are looking into the digital way but at the moment it will all be hard.
      And as mentioned before the pricing is low enough to get it into everyones player.
