【實用攝影app】Rick Sammon's Light It Light!|最夯免費app-gigacircle

Rick Sammon’s Light It! Light is an iPhone app designed to help you make professional-quality digital SLR people pictures – without spending a small fortune on professional lighting accessories. This app works on all iPhone and iPod touch devices running iOS 5.1 or greater.

This app includes streaming video lessons which requires a wirless network connection.

It's called Light It! Light because the iPhone version contains the all the same great Rick Sammon video lessons as the iPad version but does not have the extensive photo gallery nor Library that is included in the iPad version, Light It!.

Rick Sammon took the illustrative photographs with a range of digital SLR cameras – from entry-level to top-of-the-line models. While watching the video lessons, you’ll learn how pros photograph people indoors and outdoors, in bright light and in low light, at home and on location, and even in a studio. In looking at the photographs, you’ll see the effects of my recommended techniques.

In the easy-to-follow and fun video lessons, some of which were originally shot for Wiley Publishing, I’ll show you how to use reflectors, diffusers, a flash, flash accessories, basic strobe kits, basic hot-light kits and more. I also cover camera settings, as well as some of my photo philosophies. Although I often refer to specific cameras, the basic camera settings can be applied to any digital SLR.

This is a basic, or starter, app about lighting. However, as you will see, pros use many of these techniques and accessories to get great shots. ( Yes, we are already working on Light It! II )

Two of the videos in this app – Top 21 People Photography Tips and Top Ten Digital Photography Tips – feature some of Rick's favorite digital SLR pictures from around the world, accompanied with how-to tips, of course!

The movies, shot by Emmy-award winner David Leveen, are divided into five sections:

Basics 33 Minutes

Outdoors 15 Minutes

In Your Home 16 Minutes

On-Location 12 Minutes

Studio Shooting 23 Minutes

The total viewing time is over 1.5 hours. So in effect, the app is taking a private lesson with me – but only at your own pace.

The app was developed by Craig Ellis of Great Oak Software. In discussing the app, Craig said, “My goal with the design of Light It Light! was to make it an intuitive yet rich learning experience that showcases Rick’s favorite lessons that are embodied in beautiful videos. His lessons are fun and easy to follow where he makes learning fast – so the user experience supports that flow. I am especially proud of look and feel where iPhone users should be immediately familiar, comfortable, and productive using the app to become seasoned photographers in taking better people pictures by learning from the teachings of Rick Sammon.”
