BRAND NEW Creative Workshops with Stan Farrow [2-Parts]

We are so excited to announce that one of our most-loved and requested speakers, the wonderful Stan Farrow, is returning to Camversation with a brand new, two-part workshop!​​

Stan is a true stalwart of the Camversation community, a talented artist, and a great friend. It's an honour to have him back to share his latest techniques, which have been highly requested by many within the community.

In this special 2-part series Stan will guide you through his workflow, blending in-camera techniques with editing, and even showing you how to build your own physical props. It’s a unique chance to learn both the digital and the practical, hands-on side of creative art.

This single £12 ticket gives you live access to both sessions, plus the recordings.

Part 1: Multi-Exposure Architectural Abstracts

(Monday, 24th November, 7pm GMT)

Forget boring building photos. Stan will show you how to take in-camera double or triple exposures of architecture and transform them into beautiful, semi-abstract works of art.

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

• Process your base images with creative inversions and colour changes (hue/saturation).

• Build rich layers in Photoshop.

• Experiment with blending modes to find creative combinations.

• Add depth and story with texture layers, text, and even maps.

• Use layer masks to perfectly control your final piece.

Part 2: Physical Craft: Creating Your Own Backgrounds

(Monday, 22nd December, 7pm GMT)

Ever wonder how to get those perfect, bespoke backgrounds for your still-life or flat-lay photos? This is the "how-to" guide for you. Through a detailed presentation of his process (using photos and slides of each step), Stan will show you how to make them!

This is a practical guide to creating your own beautiful, textured backdrops. You will learn:

• What materials to use as a base (plywood, MDF, cardboard).

• The secret ingredients to add interest (muslin, paper, texture paste, crackle paste, printed text, etc.).

• How to assemble your creations.

• Techniques for lighting and photographing your subjects on your new backdrops.

• How to process the final image with pro touches like vignettes and the "Orton Effect."

A Workshop with a Wonderful Cause

This 2-part series is just £12.

A Note on the Price (And Supporting a Great Cause):
