William Morton and the Location Lighting poster
William Morton of Morton Visuals was invited to present a seminar at the Tri-Community School of Photography in Covina this weekend. William put together a 3-hour class on Location Lighting – Taking Control of Your Color. The 57 students learned new techniques to identify the ambient color cast in a location, match their lighting, and effectively neutralize all color casts in their finished image. Additional time was spent showcasing recent photo projects and examining both “behind the scenes” images illustrating how the images were captured and lighting diagrams explaining how the effects were created. Maintaining an accurate color balance was an underlying theme of all. Afterwards William reported that he was pleased with the turnout and the great questions posed by the students, even during breaks and afterwards. The students of Tri-Community were enthusiastic, and hopefully everyone left with a new idea (or three) to try themselves. Thanks to ASMP colleague Ramon Purcell for the company on the long drive, as well as the photos shown here.
