Are you keen to begin documenting and interpreting the artists and context surrounding the music you most love?  Interested in approaching clients with a portfolio of music photographs you've already created?  Would you like to see your music work exhibited locally or farther afield, or posted for the world to see on the internet?  Whatever your aims, this course will give you a "one up" in getting there in music photography .

Mentored all along the way by renowned music photographer, David Bowen, you'll gain the skills to produce stunning music photographs and be privy to "insider tips" on creating audience, stage and behind-the-scenes imagery that stands out heads above the rest..  And - you'll do it conveniently, at venues near you.  Wherever the music takes you, you'll polish new skills in lighting, composition and editing to capture it best - unique to your photographic style and vision.

What you will need:

• DSLR Camera or film camera with manual mode capability (film must be digitized for upload to the TCI website)
• Wide zoom lens (16-35mm or similar) and (if possible) a fast mid-range zoom lens, (24-70mm or similar) or prime lens 50mm or greater.
• Computer with photo-processing software (e.g. Photoshop)
• Compatible TTL Flash unit with off-camera cord / handheld capability
• An established relationship with a venue, a band or a promoter in order to shoot twice per week during the course. Such can range from a neighborhood pub to a local school or town orchestra (If needed, please contact TCI Support for advice)
