Color in photography

Monday · 1 time a week
Lecturer: Dimitri Bogachuk
Colour is one of the most important elements in fine art photography. Whether in fashion, painting or photography, there are principles governing harmonious colour combinations. Each colour has an emotional resonance and influences viewers differently, with some combinations reinforcing each other while others weaken each other.
This course is designed for photographers who wish to explore colour theory and its practical application, in order to unveil new perspectives in the study of colour within modern photography. The originality of the programme lies in its emphasis on the original author's perception of colour and the development of participants' creative potential.
The course serves as a basis for understanding the subtleties of working with colour, providing a mastery of competitive techniques for discovering one's own visual style and thematic approach when it comes to colour.
The foundation of this course is based on fundamental ideas for creating and developing an author's style. Many graduates are recognized as the most talented representatives of modern photography.
