If you want to make it beyond Instagram as a photographer you have
to give a solid listen to the ideas, tips and overall mindset that
Finn shares in this workshop. @alexstrohl Don't just take a
picture, make photos that move people. Storytelling is a gift to
photographers, letting you weave together characters, events,
locations and subjects into a work of beauty greater than the sum
of its parts. There are as many stories to tell as pictures to
take, but there are also tried-and-tested methods you can adopt to
help improve your photography and streamline your workflow. In this
beginner-to-pro workshop, award-winning photographer and influencer
Finn Beales teaches enthusiasts and aspiring professionals how to
master every element of the photographer's process. By following
his five-step course - Pitch, Prepare, Shoot, Edit and Deliver -
you will develop the same successful, reliable working methods that
earn influence and delight audiences, regardless of what genre
you're working in. Create intrigue, pull in your audience and tell
richer, more rounded stories using your DSLR camera. Want to craft
a shoot from start to finish? All the essentials are covered, from
building a story into your creative, shoot preparation, the
necessary gear and props, working with mood-boards and call sheets,
compositional balance, and directing models, right through to post
production, editing and file delivery. Discover within: What
equipment you'll need, when and why; The secret to key shots and
essential techniques; Plot devices to help you craft your
narrative; Step-by-step DSLR projects to perfect your skills;
Effortlessly capture events, landscapes, portraits, interiors and
experiences; How to edit better and be different; Extra exercises
to improve your smartphone photography. Compose for impact. Stand
out through story.
Containing 30 essays that embody the history of photography, this
collection includes contributions from Niepce, Daguerre, Fox,
Talbot, Poe, Emerson, Hine, Stieglitz, and Weston, among
others.
Alternative Photographic Processes teaches techniques, both analog
& digital, allowing artists to bring a personal touch through
manipulation of a photograph, the negative, and the print. This
book stands apart from recent publications on alternative processes
by presenting a range of new approaches and methods to achieve
popular techniques, as well as providing step-by-step guidance for
an array of unique techniques meant to inspire artists working in
various mediums. Through detailed guidance, working artist
examples, and info about the contemporary use of these processes,
this book will provide instruction for students, educators, and
artists to expand their creative toolbox.
Change Detection and Image Time Series Analysis 2 presents
supervised machine-learning-based methods for temporal evolution
analysis by using image time series associated with Earth
observation data. Chapter 1 addresses the fusion of multisensor,
multiresolution and multitemporal data. It proposes two supervised
solutions that are based on a Markov random field: the first relies
on a quad-tree and the second is specifically designed to deal with
multimission, multifrequency and multiresolution time series.
Chapter 2 provides an overview of pixel based methods for time
series classification, from the earliest shallow learning methods
to the most recent deep-learning-based approaches. Chapter 3
focuses on very high spatial resolution data time series and on the
use of semantic information for modeling spatio-temporal evolution
patterns. Chapter 4 centers on the challenges of dense time series
analysis, including pre processing aspects and a taxonomy of
existing methodologies. Finally, since the evaluation of a learning
system can be subject to multiple considerations, Chapters 5 and 6
offer extensive evaluations of the methodologies and learning
frameworks used to produce change maps, in the context of
multiclass and/or multilabel change classification issues.
