Welcome to my Textures From Start to Finish class! I am excited to share this class with all of you, and anxious to see the images you will produce!
You can log in at BPSOP.com and click on My Courses on the right side bar menu to access / begin the course. If you have any issues with your username or password, please contact Michele, [email protected].
I hope you will take a few minutes and tell us all a little about yourself and your photography on the Student Introductions Forum page. Also feel free to upload outtakes or additional photos for your classmates to see and comment on in the class Q and A. Interaction adds much to the class experience, so please share your comments and ask lots of questions.
Most of this class will be in video format, and for each lesson I have also created a pdf with key points and any links mentioned in the lesson. Included with Lesson 1 is a free download link to three of my textures so that you can start or add to your own collection.
Size your assignment images to around 1200px on the long side, at 72dpi. Always be sure the color profile is set to sRGB for uploads to the web or your colors will look muddy and not be true to the original. Please add the original photo to the comments below the photo. Please also include your equipment and exposure info, and anything else you’d like me to know about your photo, the more info the better!
You have 10 days to complete each assignment. I will be doing my critiques on Mondays. If you are late with an assignment, don’t stress. I would rather wait to see your best possible work than have you rush to meet a deadline. My critiques might have to wait until the following week, but I will critique the images, no matter how late you post.
