Cinematic Portraiture Workshop
Bangkok: Novemeber 4 (5), 2017
Join Kristian as he takes you through the steps needed to create striking cinematic portraits. During this one-and-a-half-day workshop, you will learn the necessary steps to pose your subjects, control light and exposure, and execute beautiful composition to make your pictures sing out of camera.
The key to creating dramatic portraits with cinematic flare is making smart decisions on depth of field choice, lighting choice/control and posing. The right combination can easily bring out successful portraits in almost any situation, and it's Kristian's goal to deliver these concepts to shape your attitude towards portraiture and carry through to your own photography.

The workshop will focus mostly on using available light, but will feature how to use additional lighting like LED or flash to supplement available light, or overpower when needed. The best portraits always look best with 'natural-looking' light and that is the goal when adding additional lighting.
All the topics covered during this workshop will enable you to create cinematic portraits in any style of shooting, whether it be wedding, documentary, family or commercial photography. Furthermore, once you’ve taken part in one of Kristian’s workshop you’ll join a group of hundreds of workshop participants who continue to receive guidance and support from Kristian with their photography going forward.
Workshop fee 12,500 baht
