[FRAMED] Episode 5: Chris Orwig Find Your Passion

Many photographers are self-taught, and others learn from the best. And this photographer, is one of the best. Why? Because he has found his voice and followed his passion. Because of that, he was a large piece of what many of us use today...Adobe Photoshop. He is sought after by celebrities to spread his wisdom, was featured on TEDx, he teaches on the great resource of Lynda.com, and is currently changing lives one student at a time.

Chris Orwig brings passion to all that he does. He has an insatiable knack for creativity and discovery. Chris is a celebrated photographer, author, speaker, interactive designer and on the faculty of Brooks Institute of Photography is Santa Barbara, CA. His work is widely sought after and enjoys a diverse client base including professional surfers, musicians, artists, etc.

In fact, many of our [FRAMED] artists have attended Brooks Institute and have told us the incredible influence that Orwig has had on their work, their art, their vision, and most importantly, their lives.

Join him today as he gives us a tour of Brooks, shoot some film, speaks inspiration and even gives a sneak into his skills on Lightroom and Photoshop.

You mean YOU are of the impression. Clearly he can't be too down on Lightroom if he exported from program. Thanks for being an ass, tho.

[DarkAngelEU]

because some people are of opinion that Lightroom is shit? Others just have their own way of working.

You have a lot more control of the tonalities affected in a curves adjustment than in LR. Now that LR4 has a curves adjustment that move may not be totally necessary. But it still comes down to habit and preference and he was using LR3 in the vid.

I like C.O. but the audio quality was crap- Next time can u mic your guests.

[Petr Novotný]

Lot of interesting thoughts.
