Hurry, early bird tickets available for just £59 when purchased before the end of April 2025!

Explore the world of continuous lighting in this hands-on introductory course. Unlike flash, constant lighting provides a ‘what you see is what you get’ experience, making it easier to learn but offering unique challenges as you master it. In this session, we'll cover essential techniques to help you shape and control light, from understanding power and throw to using gels for creative colour.

The course will guide you through:

  • The fundamentals of continuous lighting and its applications for photography.
  • Practical knowledge of different light modifiers and how they affect light spread and intensity
  • Setups ranging from single-light to three-light for various moods and effects
  • The creative use of modifiers, projection attachments, gobos, and Fresnel lenses to refine and shape light precisely

This course is perfect for anyone looking to elevate their photography or videography through the creative possibilities of constant lighting. Designed for those starting their lighting journey, it’s also ideal for anyone wanting to revisit the basics and pick up new tips along the way.

All lighting equipment will be provided.
