Understanding Digital Colour 20/3/10 ‘Understanding Digital Colour’ provides visual artists with the knowledge to use digital photography in an expressive way to control digital colour from conception through to the final print or multimedia presentation of their work. The workshop aims to increase the participants’ ability to pre-visualise, control and manipulate digital colour through the use of experiential techniques to engage with colour on a sensory level. The artist can then relate that knowledge back to practical digital tools to produce compelling results in print or projection. Digital colour explained What is colour? - A property of light - A property of physical things - A sensation in the brain Visualising colour A brief history of colour in art Systems for describing colour Interactions of colour Working with digital colour Digital cameras - How they work - Quality factors - Choosing the appropriate camera for your needs - Digital camera file formats – RAW vs JPEG Imaging software - RAW processing - Image manipulation - Non-destructive image editing - Computers and display systems Printing Digital Colour Digital printing processes compared Calibration and colour management methods Taking viewing conditions into account Creating Photoshop Masters 17/4/10 Gain ultimate control over Photoshop’s most advanced features to produce compelling prints from your digital files. This workshop provides a step-by-step introduction to the concept of non-destructive image editing using Photoshop’s Layers and Blending Modes. The overall objective of the workshop is to start with a basic digital image, either scanned from film or from a digital camera, to be able to visualise how that image may be fine tuned or altered to achieve your aesthetic aims, and then to apply those changes as a series of layers. The result is a master file that is optimised for your chosen print process and able to be output to a variety of sizes and uses. All this is achieved without changing the original image that is always available for immediate comparison by switching on its layer visibility.
