Project 30DPI

Here I am introducing to you my brand new project which I have planned for couple of weeks. I named it “30 Days to Photography Improvement” which is inspired by Darren Rowse’s 31DBB. Whom book I just bought to help me improve my blog as well.
This project, to me, serves as a reminder of all the things I’ve learnt over my journey. The books I’ve read, the workshop I’ve attended, the shots I took, and the people I’ve met. I want my mind to revisit all those old events and pour them down into words.
For you, that means free education and tutorial that could bring the best out of your eyes and camera. Saves you the prices of the books, workshop instructors, and paying for “wannabe” model who ruined a photoshoot.

What will be inside the project?

The 30DPI project will cover most basic theories such as:

Rules of compositions.
Exposure techniques
Get sharp images
Reduce camera shakes
Basic post processing
How to talk with models
How to find workshops
How to join good photography clubs
Terminologies (geek speak) of photography
AND so much more

I will be making some video tutorial and illustration to describe my points. I’m really excited for this project.

So when does it starts?

I’m planning to to start on Thursday next week, that is the 4th of February 2010. Mark your calendar down!
