Cap­tur­ing accu­rate and con­sis­tent col­ors has always been a dif­fi­cult task to achieve. But recent devel­op­ments in soft­ware and hard­ware, such as X-Rite‘s Col­orChecker Pass­port, pro­vide sim­ple and prac­ti­cal tools to gain con­trol of your color work­flow. Using any cam­era capa­ble of shoot­ing RAW files, stu­dents pho­to­graph under var­i­ous light­ing con­di­tions and learn to cre­ate cus­tom cam­era pro­files fol­low­ing a step-by-step real-life sce­nario using Adobe Light­room 3.

Stu­dents will under­stand how cam­eras actu­ally per­ceive color, see the dif­fer­ence in cam­era sen­sors, learn when to use spe­cific color spaces, and clar­ify the con­cept of the RAW work­flow. Any cam­era capa­ble of shoot­ing RAW files will work for this class. new pre­req­ui­site: Adobe Light­room for Begin­ners, Photo I: Dig­i­tal, or port­fo­lio review.

“Eduardo is a tal­ented edu­ca­tor and pro­fes­sional who is always at the ready to share his knowl­edge and be of assis­tance to any­one who asks. He is a team player with a true col­lab­o­ra­tive spirit. He is a very good writer, an excel­lent speaker and com­mu­ni­ca­tor, and on top of that is very pleas­ant and fun to work with. He has pro­duced some excel­lent work on the X-Rite Photo Blog includ­ing a video project last year called Color Shorts, a four-part video series on a color man­age­ment instru­ment. He was able to expand on some gen­eral ideas, cre­ate the scripts, shoot and edit the video and deliver to us a very pro­fes­sion­ally pro­duced fin­ished prod­uct. We are very proud to fea­ture his work. It is always my plea­sure to col­lab­o­rate with Eduardo Angel on any project.”
