All You Need Is 1 Light Workshop
The first lighting workshop at Come Uptown Studios will be hosted by @Joe_Chea and guest @IslandBoiPhotography. This workshop focuses on making a fundamentally sound portrait with just 1 light, The Basics. This workshop will cover the basics of working with any single monolight , efficiently, in any studio space . We will cover different types of lighting modifiers, what they do, how to manage the results, how to set up a single light, and eventually how to produce a properly lit portrait with an assistant and solo, and much more. This is a LIGHTING AND PHOTOGRAPHY SPECIFIC Workshop. This is the last workshop at Come Uptown Studios for the year, but there will be plenty of many workshops in our Community + Creativity Series in the coming year.
Lastly, the space for these workshops will be limited in order to make sure the attendees will have the best possible learning experience. After the workshop, we will have a brief meet and greet segment where you can expand your creative networks and list of peer-based resources.
This workshop will last 2.5 hours, includes water and soft drinks, and will grant you the opportunity to test the techniques you’re learning in real-time.

This workshop will cover the basics of operating effectively, efficiently, and professionally in any studio space . We will cover safety protocols, how to properly set up mono-lights and strobes, effectively setting up backdrops with an assistant and solo, and much more. This is a STUDIO SPECIFIC Workshop, not a photography workshop, but… you never know what we may go over! This is the first of many workshops in our Community + Creativity Series and is 100% free.
