    When you’re on location, getting the right shot can require imagination, resourcefulness, and even a bit of improvisation. In this course, follow along with photographer Joe McNally as he goes on location to photograph a belly dancer. Throughout the course, Joe highlights his entire workflow—from researching the subject and gathering the right gear for the shoot, to setting up the shot and dealing with on-set challenges, all the way to post-production. He discusses several techniques for working with a dancer, as well as techniques for transforming a location so that it best complements your subject.

    Topics include:

    • Researching the subject
    • Conducting a phone interview
    • Essential pieces of gear for a dance shoot
    • Working with a photo assistant
    • Setting up and changing a shot
    • Visualizing the first shot
    • Creating a lighting setup that complements your subject
    • Modifying the environment
    • Dealing with on-set challenges
    • Attaching lights to a subject

    Quoting him from one of the vids from this set: “ you’re just . . . beside yourself; ya know . . . confronting your our ceaseless ineptitude . . . “

    He’s so funny – and a great real-time problem-solver . . . I know these are considered “old” but they retain their unpolished production value from a great teacher . . . his books read similar to explaining his thought process . . . good foundational "stuff" - - -

    OP refreshed - ;)
