"A One-Day Digital Imaging Blitz"

Hot Techniques for Honest to Goodness Photographers

Vancouver Photo Workshops proudly announces a one day workshop,"Dan's 2007 Digital Blitz - Hot Techniques for Honest to Goodness Photographers " with internationally acclaimed photographer Dan Burkholder to be held on November 19th, 2007!

Dan Burkholder returns to Vancouver to serve up another helping of creative and timesaving photographic techniques for honest to goodness photographers. There will be lots of new information, tips and tricks!

Watch and learn as Dan Burkholder deciphers the depths of Photoshop CS3 so you don’t have to. In one fun-filled day you can leap a giant step closer to having the image control you need and want. From capture to print, get the stuff real photographers use every day.

Dan’s 2007 Blitz includes new techniques and tips that will arm you with a virtual bandolier of digital bullets to defeat the nerds and computer jockeys who want you to think it’s harder than it really is!

  • Learn the meat-and-potatoes techniques for capturing and manipulating your images to get prints that match your imagination.
  • From Quick Mask to Layer Styles to HDR to Blending Modes, learn which techniques work and which are time-wasting techie-food.
  • Learn how to use High Dynamic Range imaging (HDR) to capture scenes with extreme contrast. Dan is recognized as a pioneer in HDR photography; his forthcoming book on New Orleans uses HDR techniques extensively.
  • Learn Dan’s gallery-tested methods for producing prints with glowing highlights, seductive midtones and shadows you can fall into.
  • See how High Dynamic Rang (HDR) imaging can let you tackle scene contrast ranges you never thought possible.
  • Take off the training wheels and learn how to drive Photoshop’s selection tools like a professional. Learn why “make a selection and do something to it” is Dan’s mantra. We’ll leave no selection method unexplored.
  • Grasp the power—and ease—of Bridge®, and Camera Raw®.
  • Learn the parts of Color Management you actually need, from a photographer who never sinks into digi-geek-speak. Profiles and Soft Proofing become your new friends as you learn how to make prints that look just like your monitor image.
  • The workshop doesn’t stop here! You’ll go home with Dan’s bound workbook that’s jam-packed with information, plus a DVD with TinyTutorial videos, demo images and PDFs that will keep you learning for days.

Dan combines decades of classic photographic experience with a fine art aesthetic to help you expand your new digital craft. Have pixels at your command and a smile on your face.

If you have a passion for your photography and use Photoshop, this intense—yet oh so fun—day of digital excitement will give you goose bumps!

About the Artist:

Dan Burkholder was one of the first photographic artists to embrace digital technology in the early 1990’s. True to his love of the traditional photograph, Dan uses digital technology to build images that still look and feel like real photographs, not like something from a graphic designer’s portfolio. Melding his unique vision with mastery of both the wet and digital darkrooms, his platinum prints are now included in many museum and private collections.

Originating the digital-negative process in 1992, Burkholder has helped open doors for all black and white photographers interested in moving into the new electronic technologies. His award-winning book, Making Digital Negatives for Contact Printing, is regarded as the most authoritative work in the field.

Dan has taught classes and workshops at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, the lnternational Center of Photography in New York, the University of Texas at San Antonio, the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego and others. Active with the Texas Photographic Society for many years, he is currently serving on the Advisory Board for this organization.
