Looking for Guest Speakers - 01-31-2010, 05:35 PM


Hello

I'm the Coordinator for Photography club at the University of Houston-Downtown.
I am currently looking for fun and exciting guest speakers for for 1-2 hours.
Would anyone here be able to do a session, or know someone that could offer their time to educate us.

We would love someone to share us the Basics of any photographic topic: Basics of Editing (some photoshop, lightroom), etc

Scheduled pending
10/4 Bryan-Exposure+Go out and Shoot.


Here is the room that I can reserve.
56 seating capacity
We can re-arrange things.


Location: University of Houston-Downtown, 1 Main st, 77002

Are y'all interested in the other half of photography? Antique photography? As told by an antique?

let's see, someone who has been doing photography for longer than i have been alive, or someone who got a dslr for christmas?

wayne, you can come guest lecture at my camera club...we don't discriminate against antiques. besides, the antique smells less like moth balls now that he got a digital upgrade.

once my camera club is going, i'll get with you on some dates.

Thanks. I'll talk for pizza & beer or Coke. Heck, with enough beer, I'll tell you stuff you don't need to know!

Cool again. I can get Dominoes or Frank's Pizza.
There's a new Saint Arnolds brewery near my school.

Right on thanks!

Kevin, I'm down for most days/times...whatever is better for you and the club.

Actually I'm a couple weeks away from being done with a 2 year non-compete contract involving greenscreen event photography. I started doing greenscreen in college in '94 and did it around the country for a company for 8 years.

So I'm contemplating including that...proper lighting, softwares, actions, tricks, etc...

I want to go BEFORE Tre, not after...that'd be a tough act to follow.
