TIME: 9:30 am– 4:30 pm
LOCATION: 21 Fieldstone Drive, Stoneham, MA

Understanding color temperature in photography continues to be a moving target. Even with auto white balance getting better with each generation of cameras, there is still variability that needs to be understood. Ambient color, flash color, modified flash color, reflective light color, using gels and color failure will be included in this comprehensive study of light and how to harness it. We will dissect these scenarios and learn to get consistent color behind the camera instead of in post production.
We will also touch upon monitor calibration and why it's important to reduce variability.
