SUMMARY:Making Photos 3D: Camera Mapping in Blender
DESCRIPTION:Facilitated by Chris Fast \nWhat is camera mapping? It is rebuilding the 3D geometry of a photo and then projecting that photo texture onto the 3D geometry. It’s a cost effective and simple way to recreate a real life scene or object in 3D (or\, with AI\, anything you can imagine!)\, and it’s a fundamental technique of modern VFX. \nAfter going over the beginner basics of navigation and manipulation in Blender\, participants will begin the camera mapping journey which includes projecting a photo texture onto a 2D sign and mapping textures onto cuboid shaped models. Using open source program fspy\, participants will then learn to perfectly calculate the camera perspective of an interior scene\, import it into Blender\, make the geometry of the scene\, and then project the image onto the geometry to create a neat little scene! \nParticipants will need a laptop or computer\, a scroll-wheel mouse and a free download of Blender. Ed Video has a limited amount of laptops available for members to use during the workshop. Please email workshops@edvideo.org if you wish to use one. \nEmail workshops@edvideo.org with any questions and/or accessibility needs.

SUMMARY:Composition – Let’s Break The Rules!  Mon. Feb 26\, 2024 – Online class
DESCRIPTION:Composition – Let’s Break The Rules!\nOnline class\, live via Zoom\nMonday\, Feb. 26. 6:30 to 9:00 pm EDT\nAges 16+ \nRating: Beginner to advanced. \nInstructor:  Sylvia Galbraith \nComposition…  a concept that often seems to include rigid rules and standard ways of arranging the elements in your photograph.  Are your photographs ordinary rather than exceptional?  Does your work look like everyone else’s? How is it that any two people might interpret a scene in a completely different ways\, and is one more “correct” than the other? How do we evaluate our own photographs to determine if they are successful beyond our own sentimental opinion? \nSo many questions\, but this workshop will help you find the answers! We’ll look at unusual ways to compose your scene\, considering object placement\, edges/borders and framing\, creating depth\, and more.  By examining the work of renowned photographers\, we’ll determine why their images stand out.  Taught live via Zoom\, we’ll also play with some practical exercises during the class to get the creative mind working\, and students will have access to the class recording for one month. \nFee: $95.00 + HST \n Register Online or call 519-787-7040 to register by phone.
