This course is designed to get up and running with Capture One Pro so you can confidently edit your photographs to meet your personal artistic potential, taking advantage of the outstanding image quality of Capture One.

The format of the personalized course is made up of three one hour one-on-one Zoom sessions. We use your own images as examples throughout the workflow and discuss how to make them better along the way. I also record the sessions and upload them for you to refer back to as needed*.

HOW THE REMOTE COURSE WORKS

After signing up, filling in the short introductory form, and checking out, you will be sent to a page where you can schedule your first session.  The two remaining sessions will be scheduled after determining how long you will need to work with the material, and what times work best for you. At the end of the course you will have the option to continue with personalized instruction on a recurring or as-needed basis. 

WHAT YOU NEED FOR THIS COURSE

AUDIO/VIDEO

You will need a computer with Zoom installed. You will also need a microphone and speakers if they are not built-in, or headset or headphones. 

DROPBOX or iCloud Drive

I use Dropbox or iCloud Drive for the shared folder for you to upload your RAW files and to download the final versions of the files we work on. I also use this folder for uploading the videos from each session.

CAPTURE ONE PRO

You should also have Capture One Pro installed so you can practice the workflow on your own between sessions. If you are unsure if you want to commit to buying before learning more about it, Phase One offers a free 30-day trail, or an affordable monthly subscription.
