Event info
Print your own Photobook at home with Tim Daly (live seminar using Zoom)
This brand-new course is delivered online and provides an introduction to making your own photobooks at home using a basic A4 inkjet printer and no special equipment. Printing at home is a great way to make a unique one-off book or for creating a prototype book, known as a dummy. The course is ideal for beginners and experienced alike, covering both simple and more complex techniques as the workshop progresses. All printing techniques can be done using Lightroom or Photoshop.
The workshop is run using Zoom video conferencing software and you will be able to watch and interact with your tutor during each topic presentation and ask questions throughout the day. All presentations and notes are provided to you before the event starts, together with tips on how to prepare for the course and use Zoom, if you’ve never used it before. You’ll be able to practice these techniques after the course has finished using the detailed and extensive handouts provided.
We encourage you to share questions and work in progress images with other delegates, although this is entirely optional.
