Creative Portraits With Colored Gels
Light and color are two of the most effective tools a photographer has to add subtle creative touches or create dramatic impactful statements in a photograph. Effective use of color can be the difference between an ok shot to an incredible one.
In this interactive online photography presentation, using 3D light planning software (set.a.light 3D), I will show you actual shot breakdowns of how I use color and colored gels to create my Fashion and Beauty portraits.
We will look at color theory and emotion, and I will give you some great resources to help you become confident with color selection. We will look at your options for color creation with strobes and constant light sources. I will take you through my process from start to finish.
What you will learn:
- Why does color matter?
- How to plan the right colors.
- How to read a color wheel.
- Types of gels.
- How to make DIY gels.
- The easiest way to start using gel.
- … and much more!
