Our December Monthly Meeting will be on December 14, 2023 at 6:45 pm!
The monthly club meeting is a free event for anyone who shares a passion for photography, from the total beginner with your phone to a professional with multiple gear sets. Please join us in-person or online and invite anyone who may be interested in exploring and learning about photography!
We meet at Atlanta Tech Park at 107 Technology Parkway, Peachtree Corners, GA 30092. You are welcome to arrive at 6:15 pm for fellowship and social time to meet new and current members.
Our December Speaker is Rob Rainey and the topic will be "A Videographer’s Life Through the Viewfinder"!
Rob will cover Television Production Techniques and Lighting instruction primarily for Videography, but these techniques apply to still photography as well. Along the way, Rob will introduce you to many of the situations and the people he has been fortunate enough to photograph. He also plans to introduce you to a template for successful pricing and contracts with your potential clients.
What you will learn:
Each attendee will receive a link to a 45-page guide for professional videography with hints, examples, rationale and practical tips that any videographer can use today. These bits of information are valid for both the professional as well as the budding still photographer who wants to make better videos using his current equipment such as that new Mirrorless camera.
