Silhouette art is anything but a blast from the past. Recently, the silhouette has made a huge comeback, and it seems that everywhere we look, silhouettes are now adorning every type of product. This sudden silhouette mania inspired Design Aglow to release a detailed seminar just for professional photographers who would like to learn the art of the "digital silhouette".
Introducing a revolutionary new service to add to your studio's offerings. The Inspire Guide: Silhouettes is a full e-seminar on how to create custom heirloom silhouettes for your clients using the photographic equipment you already have. The seminar will take you in-depth and step-by-step through every aspect of the artistic process including set-up, planning, shooting, digital manipulation, designing, marketing, and selling. To get the creative juices flowing, there is also a chapter completely devoted to ideas and inspiration, where many different styles of silhouettes are featured, along with how they were created.
PERFECT FOR:
• Wedding and portrait photographers with an intermediate to advanced knowledge of lighting, camera settings, and Photoshop.
• This seminar is completely digital, which means you learn on your computer at your own pace. The guide is presented in PDF format for easy viewing and printing right from your hard drive. Some of the features include:
• 83 pages of gorgeousness! Includes more silhouette eye candy than you can shake a stick at.
• In-depth e-seminar presented in digital book format. Read along and flip pages as you would any book.
• Digital goodies galore! You do not need to have any design experience or design resources to begin offering silhouettes right away. The seminar includes a "goody bag" folder full of backgrounds, silhouette frames, accessories, and design elements. Over 80 design resources are included. Also included are two beautiful marketing postcards to send out when you are ready to begin offering your silhouettes.
• The artistic process from start to finish. We cover: deciding on a location to shoot your silhouettes, finding and setting up lighting, choosing the best camera settings, posing your subject, wardrobe considerations, product ideas, marketing and sales, constructing a silhouette in Photoshop, adding design elements and text to your silhouette, creative posing ideas, and, best of all, lots of sample silhouette art to inspire you.
