POST
PROCESSING
WORKSHOP FOR KIDS & TEENS

WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

During this period of lockdown, The Outback Experience presents the perfect opportunity for budding young photography enthusiasts to master the art of digital post-processing without leaving the safety of your home.

With the advent of digital photography, a requirement for post processing was also born. What can be done with a camera on location amounts to about half of the process of creating a great image. The other half of creating a great image is done in a digital darkroom (on a computer).

The team of instructors are exceptional with children and will ensure a fun, educational, interactive and creative time.

Over the last few years we have trained many talented photographers on our workshops and camps, however they lacked knowledge of how to post process their images to create truly remarkable photographs. Hence, we came up with our unique 

  • Post-Processing Workshop using Adobe Lightroom OR Adobe Photoshop: The aim of the course is to introduce the importance of post processing your pictures to reveal the true beauty behind your images.
  • Advanced Post-processing Workshop, where we teach you some really advanced concepts.
  • Photography Mentorship Programme where you may choose between 3 months, 6 months or 12 months and we will guide you through your photography journey helping you master the basics and advanced concepts during the course of the mentorship.

Enrol your child today for a hands-on learning experience about the wonderful art and magic of post processing.
