Apologies for cross-posting:
The JISC's Technical Advisory Service for Images is running the following
workshops during September:
GETTING THE BEST FROM YOUR COMPACT DIGITAL CAMERA - Wednesday 17th September
A practical workshop for those wanting to produce better quality images
using a compact digital camera. The course covers general camera skills as
well as issues specific to digital cameras. Topics include colour,
calibration, white balance, lighting and image optimisation (using Adobe
Photoshop). This workshop is suitable for beginners and includes advice on
what to look for when choosing a digital camera.
COLOUR MANAGEMENT FOR DIGITISATION PROJECTS - Wednesday 24th September
An advanced workshop for those involved in high quality digitisation
projects. Reliable, consistent colour is one of the most difficult things
to achieve in a digital imaging project. Whilst 'best practice' recommends
device calibration and ICC colour profiling, it can be a challenge to find
out how to implement this in the real world of a digitisation project.
TASI's colour management workshop aims to plug this gap, walking through
the basic steps from calibrating input devices to accurately simulating
printed output. This workshop uses Adobe Photoshop 6.0 and requires
experience of digital capture and image editing.
NOTE: This workshop is full, but we have a waiting list. If there is
sufficient interest we will repeat this workshop soon.
... and coming up in October:
Image Capture - Beginners (Thursday 16th October)
Image Capture - Intermediate (Friday 17th October)
Creating Quality Metadata for Digital Images (Thursday 23rd October)
NOTE: The Image Capture workshops are part of a series and can be taken
separately or together.
