The Fine Digital Print Advanced
Workshop overview: The Fine Digital Print workshop series offers the most advanced digital printing workshops available anywhere. You'll learn more in one week than you learn in a semester in college. The Fine Digital Print Advanced translates traditional photographic language and practices into new digital media. You’ll see, use, and evaluate a variety of printers, ink, papers, drivers/RIPs and profiles. You’ll learn how to look at and what to look for in great prints. Specific focus will be directed to Epson printers. The heart of Photoshop will be revealed. By the end of the week you will have been exposed to a solid overview of the digital imaging process, a recommended workflow, and a variety of techniques and tools to help improve your digital files and prints. You'll leave with at least one great print and the knowledge you need to get the results you’re looking for when you return home. You'll also leave with a vastly expanded set of possibilities for making images. With more change to photography in the last decade than in it's entire history, this is a very exciting time to be involved. Come find out about the latest developments in digital printing and see what the latest printers and media can do for you and your images. Put the R/Evolution to work for you. Use the power of digital imaging and printmaking to advance your unique vision. Schedule Monday: media survey, color management, proofing Advanced topics tailored for the needs of the group Limited class size ensures that pace and topics covered may be adjusted based on the needs of the group. Topics include … * Color managed workflow from input to output Demonstrations are followed by step-by-step hands-on exercises; some use images that are provided for you; in some cases you’ll be able to use your own images and discover how you’ll need to customize the techniques for your particular needs. Extensive supplementary materials are provided in both Workbook and CD formats filled with exercises, informative PDFs, test files, and Photoshop actions designed to make routine tasks as easy as pushing a button. There's more information in these items than we can cover in a week. You'll find it to be an invaluable resource long after the workshop. View original masterworks: One of the best ways to learn how to make better prints is to expose yourself to great masterworks. You'll develop an eye for the aesthetics of photographic printmaking. You'll become sensitized to the many nuances that add up to make a great print. During my workshops you'll see original master works from the history of photography including original prints by Ansel Adams, Wynn Bullock, Paul Caponigro, Linda Connor, Kurt Markus, Arnold Newman, Olivia Parker, Chris Rainier, Joyce Tenneson, George Tice, Jerry Uelsmann, Brett Weston, Minor White, Huntington Witherill, and many more. This workshop is right for you if: You want to establish a rock solid foundation for all of your current and future digital imaging and printmaking needs. Also see Mastering Black and White Printing, which covers the same material but with more emphasis on black-and-white imagery. Workshop requirements: This is an intermediate workshop; it is not a beginning workshop. You should be comfortable with Photoshop. You should be familiar with the topics we plan to cover and ready to advance your knowledge at a rapid rate. This workshop has a strong photographic perspective but is applicable to all types of artists who want to reproduce their work in digital media. Bring your images and prints that raise technical questions you’d like to resolve. Reviews: Time is not allotted for formal group reviews. Individual reviews take place informally throughout the week during breaks and as you work on your images. DVDs: My DVD series R/Evolution offers excellent resources to help you prepare for my workshops and review core material presented long afterwards. FInd our more about DVDs. Click Here |
