Presenter:
Dean Golja While digital cameras are related in principle to their film ancestors, they present a completely new range of working methods and opportunities. This workshop will help you understand these issues through a detailed investigation of capturing and processing camera RAW files. Different techniques and production strategies are compared and contrasted for advanced control of digital image quality. The workshop will cover 4 areas of production:
Creating Digital Negatives
Calibrating Digital Cameras
Developing Digital Negatives
Post Processing Images
This course is designed for teachers who want to optimise their knowledge and already have some experience with Photography and Photoshop.
There will be a short excursion so ideally participants should bring their own digital camera with Raw capabilities, a tripod and a downloading cord or card reader.
A camera will be provided if this is not possible.
Detailed class notes are provided.
What to bring:Camera (own or institutions) with raw capabilities.
Tripod.
Download device or usb cord.
Flash drive to archive project.
If not able to bring these items capture and download will be accessed with trainers equipment.

  | Loved it! Learned heaps! Thanks Dean! |
| Delivery of course content was clear and easy to keep up with. Dean was very good with individual needs as well as group needs. |
| Course should be two days, too many aspects for one day. |
  | Course was weighted to Photoshop software but hard to translate to Elements which is provided to schools. |
| Presenter very helpful, knowledgable and friendly. |
| Very informative. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and learnt new skills that I can implement in the classroom. |
| Well presented. Clear instructions. A lot to take in. Will work at a senior level. |
| More time needed with editing and learning/ refining those skills. Perhaps less talking at the start and getting into programs etc sooner. Course over 2 days might be a better as time is eaten up when you have to go and take images. |
| Would have liked to get to print stage - but so much to get through. |
