Lighting and Studio Techniques

The other day Cliff had his students split up into two group for a mood lighting exercise. Craig and Shellee wound up being the digital techs of the groups. Craig worked with a Nikon and their capture software Capture NX 2 which wasn’t really cooperating with his team that much. Shellee’s team also had some problem working with Canon and their capture software. It would stop downloading to the computer after about two images. She decided to just use her laptop the she had tested prior to the demo. After some initial setup problems with the computers everything wound up working out in the end. While the demo was going on I decided to document it for archiving purposes and maybe some promotional uses later in advertising the Cypress College Photography Department.
