You know people laugh at me when they see I use Aperture but they never laugh when I show them why...

 

In this exclusive new webinar I will demonstrate how Aperture can help you create a really powerful workflow - my workflow that I've developed over the last 8-10 years .

This workflow allows you to use HDR (high dynamic range) built in as a possibility for every image you shoot. You don't have to shoot multiple images to have a HDR image- I've worked out how to do it in a single image. I achieve this by shooting for the workflow.

In this webinar I will show how Aperture is unmatched as a RAW converter ability to bring back good quality highlight detail and I will demonstrate the massive impact it has on your images.

I will also teach you how Aperture is perfect for setting colour temperature correctly on an image. Aperture has a fantastic advantage over Lightroom here and I will demonstrate my new colour fixer tool during the webinar.

Over the 90 minute webinar I promise to open your mind to the possibilities of Aperture as a powerful engine behind the scenes giving your workflow a better edge than anything else out there. I guarantee you will be blown away by this webinar



Image above... This is an example of the 'Colour temperature Fixer'. The image is shot in RAW with a fixed colour temperature within the camera. Once imported into Aperture it takes less than a minute to initialy correct the colour temperature and then secondly apply the 'Process Workflow' action.

These two steps are a powerful editing solution and you need to see it to really grasp the workflow potential.

Seminar Content

Import
I will be demonstrating the main issues of importing your images, explaining 'Managed' and 'Referenced' image organisation for the best long term use of Apple Aperture as an Image management tool.

Organise
One of the most powerful features of Aperture is the ability to help filter and organise your images, over the years I have evolved a foolproof system for myself and my customers. It is very quick and very simple.

Edit
Aperture has some very powerful editing features, I will be showing a few of these in the weinar but this presentation is about the relationship between Aperture and Adobe Photoshop. You will see first hand how the Aperture RAW engieg is an important part of my HDR process.

You will then see how I use Aperture to implement my 'Colour Temperature Fixer'. It is a cool solution to one of the largest problems within digital photography and my solution takes seconds to achieve a consistent, repeatable result.

Publish
There are many publishing paths from Aperture and we will be looking at Books, and Mobile Me Galleries as well as the tight integration between Aperture and the iLife software collection.
