Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) is a creative photography technique in which the camera is moved during the exposure. The end results have a painterly feel and sometimes the images can look more like paintings than photographs. During this course you will learn which methods to use to to achieve the results you want.
In this workshop there are 6 lessons during which we go through what kind of equipment is needed for ICM photography, as well as handy post processing techniques. You will learn the importance of shutter speed, focal length, basic movements and how to create successful compositions of ICM images.Each of the 6 lessons has a video that explains the technique and the exercise. You will also receive a PDF download of each exercise.
All students get access to our private Facebook group where you can post your photos and ask questions from the teachers and other students.
