The Invisible Second Shooter!

shoot0530

Join host Joe Brady as he shows how you can use multiple cameras to get shots that might otherwise be difficult or impossible to get. During this staged wedding ceremony, Joe will show the gear, setup and techniques to capture images from locations where a photographer wouldn’t be allowed during a ceremony in order to photograph unique points of view that can add extra interest in your wedding photography.

He will also set up a second camera along the center aisle with remote flash units to capture multiple points of view – all being controlled from the single camera in his hands. Didn’t think you could be in two places at once? During this free webinar sponsored by PocketWizard, see how you can add multiple cameras to any location shoot and control them wirelessly from practically anywhere. Turn your extra camera into an invisible second shooter!

Studio Portrait Lighting featuring the new PocketWizard Plus® III

Date: March 20, 2012
Time: 1pm Eastern, 12pm Central, 11am Mountain, 10am Pacific

PocketWizard Plus III

 

Join host Joe Brady for this seminar on controlling studio portrait lighting with the new PocketWizard Plus III radio. Learn the benefits of shooting with your flashes on full manual power. During our live shoot, we’ll use both speedlights and studio monolights. But more important than just discussing photography gear, we’re going to explore how and why to use this equipment to capture the image you’re after.

We all know that photography is about light. The new PocketWizard Plus III radio triggers we’re going to put to use will allow us to direct light where we need it and make it easy to control, right from the top of the camera.

We’re going to take full control of our lights for studio shoots. That means full manual control – no TTL flash. No more guessing, no constant exposure adjustments, no hours at the computer fixing your images. If you are after consistent, professional results in controlled settings, learn how manual control is the way to go!
