The Time-Traveling Photographer

In this class he explores three different techniques—multiplicity, cinemagraphs, and adding motion to a still image—that you can incorporate into your photography. Starting with the fundamentals, Frederick discusses the tools he uses, and then steps through a series of demonstrations involving on location shoots and in-studio post-processing to teach you how to accomplish each technique from start to finish.
