Description

Create a visual universe and enhance brand identity by defining the composition, color and lighting of your images

To begin, Josefina Mogrovejo tells you about her professional career leading up to working full-time in creative direction. She also shows you some of the artists that have greatly influenced her work and explains the course's final project.

Gather your materials and prepare everything you need to build a successful visual universe. Brainstorm ideas, choose a color palette, and design a mood board. Then, learn how to select the right props to creatively express your ideas.

Now grab your camera and get ready to photograph the product you've chosen. Try different layouts and analyze which one is the best fit for your visual universe. Learn different lighting techniques and arrange your composition to shoot the final photos in RAW format using a camera or your cell phone.

Finally, look through the photos you took, retouch your favorite one and share it on social media. Josefina also teaches you how to edit with Camera Raw, correct small defects in Photoshop, and use the VSCO app to edit photos taken with your cell phone.
