Félix Hernández -photographer, model designer and digital artist specialized in Toy Photography- will teach you the techniques and secrets to take pictures with scale models (toys) and trick the eye to make them seem part of a real scene.

Description

Create realistic scenes with toys and the lightpainting technique

You will begin to learn more about Felix Hernandez's work, his influences as well as an introduction to the world of toy photography and scale models.

Next you will create a story from an image and define the style, composition and lighting from a sketch.

At this point, Felix will explain some aspects of working with scale models, their advantages and disadvantages as well as some useful poses. You will also discover the materials and equipment necessary to portray a scene and learn to design your own lighting using the "Light Painting" technique using a simple LED flashlight.

Once the scene is defined, Felix will talk about the objectives, diaphragms and optimal focal lengths for the type of lighting that will help you make several shots of your scene.

Finally, you will learn to manipulate the image in digital postproduction by inserting backgrounds, adding extra elements to give it a greater degree of realism and you will make the final grading color of your composition.
