Picture This: Documenting Artwork Using a Mobile Phone

2 Hours

The image quality from today’s mobile phones successfully meets the needs for most applications an artist may need to support their practice: website, social media, marketing, submissions and more. This 2-hour seminar will provide technical and practical advice to enable artists to use this ubiquitous technology and achieve successful, high quality photographs of their artwork.

Starting with the planning process, participants will learn about setting up a space in their home or studio, what to look for in phones and other equipment, and some of the most popular photo-applications such as Snapseed and Moment. We will also work through the steps of a successful shooting session and discuss challenges that can arise including consistent and accurate colour, perspective control, cropping and glare.

No equipment necessary. It is suggested that participants download the Snapseed (free) or Moment (paid) application to their phone before the seminar.
