SUMMARY:Hunt's Portrait Workshop: Dragging the Shutter and Other Creative Lighting Portrait Effects- Hunt's Photo\, Melrose
DESCRIPTION:Educators Paul Nelson and Henry Marte lead this fun and challenging workshop that delves into dragging the shutter\, motion\, and other creative lighting effects for portraits! Dragging the Shutter is a technique used where we keep the shutter of the camera open for longer in order to create a sense of movement. It is achieved using a combination of lighting tools and can create a myriad of effects where every photo is a unique creation! We will also work on other fun creative lighting techniques and tools\, including projection mounts\, fresnels\, gobos\, and adding artificial smoke to create depth.\nYou do not need to have any prior knowledge of how to achieve these effects. \nWe will specifically be using Nanlite and Aputure LED lights and Westcott strobes\, but the concepts can apply to any lights you own. \nThis will be a fun day of portraits and not to be missed! \nAbout Henry Marte\nHenry is a published photographer and credited filmmaker. He specializes in various forms of photography\, including portrait\, events\, headshots\, drone\, and commercial photography. Other than attending MassArt’s Documentary Film School\, he is almost entirely self taught. He runs a small media production studio called Marte Media\, based out of Western Avenue Studios in Lowell. Some of his clients include Spartan Race\, UMass Lowell\, Phillips Academy\, Navigation Brewing Company\, and more. Originally from NYC\, he now calls Lowell\, Massachusetts his home. He enjoys New York style pizza\, walks with a camera\, and hiking to active volcanoes.

DESCRIPTION:Join Westcott Lighting and Hunt’s Photo Education for a brief discussion on lighting followed by a chance to use lighting gear\, modifiers\, and more with models in this weekday evening photo experience! \nGreat lighting doesn’t have to mean hauling around a truckload of gear—or draining your bank account.

With tools like the Westcott FJ80II and FJ200\, you’ll discover the freedom and power of small\, portable flashes that pack a serious punch.

You’ll learn how to sculpt light\, balance it with ambient\, and create images that go way beyond “good enough\,” all while proving that great service\, great light\, and great prices can happily live in the same sentence. \nWhether you’re brand new to lighting or just looking to expand your creative options without overloading your camera bag\, this class will leave you ready to go from fear to flash—with small lights\, smart solutions\, and big results.
