Capturing the Flow – Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Event

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is all about flow, movement, and intensity and this workshop will show you how to translate that energy into powerful photos and video.

Hosted by Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Joanne Stephan and supported by Nanlite, this hands-on session will give you practical techniques to capture combat sports with precision and creativity. From freezing high-impact moments to filming dynamic sequences, you’ll learn how to approach action storytelling in a controlled training environment.

Whether you’re shooting stills, motion, or both, this is your chance to refine your craft and push your creative edge.
