Art Nude - Dramatic w/Instructor Leah den Bok

Details

We are excited to be doing a workshop with Dane Halo for an Art Nude Workshop, where we will focus on studio lighting setups to achieve a few dramatic art nude looks to help you build your portfolio. Our instructor for this workshop is internationally renowned photographer Leah den Bok, who published her 4th photography book earlier this year. We are lucky to have such a fantastic talent coming in to teach this instructed lighting workshop for us, sharing her love of photography and fashion with us for this small intimate workshop.

The Workshop: Do you have a passion for nude art? Do you want to learn beautiful and creative professional lighting secrets? Join us for our intimate hands-on small workshop with our experienced instructors. We are serious about lighting and sharing photographic knowledge with you. We will discuss the specific lighting for each setup and why we are lighting the subject/accessories with that specific modifier and angle.

Framing: We are concentrating the framing of the shots on the following:

• 2/3rd body length shooting
• Half-length (top and accessories)
• Tight beauty lighting (makeup and head and shoulders)
• Full body

Instructor: Leah den Bok Lighting Technician: Phil Sutherland or Lisa Kruchak Our female model is Dane Halo, a professional model from Toronto, Ontario, with excellent skills in creating unique images. You can see more of her work at https://theredbomb.com/. We are limiting the workshop to a maximum of 6 participants to improve the quality of participation and instruction time per person and limit crowd size to reduce COVID risk to our members and instructors. We are proudly an Indigenous-run not-for-profit arts group serving the artistic community and advocating for photographic arts. We exist because we believe in sharing knowledge and the joy of photography with the community. We believe art should be accessible to everyone and work hard to bring arts programming to the whole community.
