About the event
Welcome to the editing masterclass you've been looking for!
Join Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Andrew J Clarke for this online editing masterclass, where you will learn everything you need to know to become an editing expert in Lightroom Classic: from importing and organising your images, to basic RAW editing, to image stacking and complex compositing in Photoshop! And all from the comfort of your own home!
The course is split into 8 x 1.5 hour sessions running from 31 May 2023 until 26 July 2023
Each session covers unique topics and can be booked separately, so feel free to sign up for a single night or all 8 if you're looking to learn a complete end to end workflow. There is also a dedicated session on 14 June 2023 for image critique and feedback in anticipation of the submission deadline for the Sony Alpha Awards.
Please review the complete program and syllabus below to make sure you're signing up for the right session(s)! Recordings of each session will be made available to those who attend.
