Waverley Camera Club

Tuesday 24th May is Flash and Portrait Group Night run by Teddy and starting at 7.30, upstairs at Wadham House.

All are very welcome to attend

Apologies to those who were told Wednesday night, it’s definately the 4th Tuesday of every month.

See you there

Wow another fun AV evening!

We viewed and critiqued Mary’s Swan Lake, Alan’s Trees (without the lake), a wonderful tour in Tasmania by Stewart plus Peter’s Anzac Day Parade.
Rodelle’s first AV was thoroughly enjoyed and although it ‘broke the rules’ it was agreed it worked because of the nature of the theme and the audience it was intended for. Well Done Rodelle!! (sorry, we can’t post it on the website due to privacy issues).

Our homework (1) is to produce an AV with the theme of Autumn, to be presented at the August class.
Peter is already one step ahead. And after viewing his Autumn AV hopefully it has inspired us all to complete our own productions!

Last month three people volunteered to find suitable music in preparation for the AV of Andy and Rosie’s Indian photographs. The intention was to use this as a group project
One person brought the case but no disc, the second did bring the music but it was considered to be ‘too Indian like’ and the third person was absent.
So Homework (2) is , again, to find some suitable music for next month. (Roger plans to start on this production. See below)

Next month Peter is away but Roger has kindly ‘volunteered’ to take the evening – I’m almost wishing I could be there as it will be a great evening with Roger.
You will not be disappointed.

Places are filling fast for the final two Beginners Courses for 2011.

If you are a novice and want to learn how to get more out of your camera and you have Monday nights free read on.

The course will run for 9 consecutive Monday nights (even on Public Holidays) and will be held at Wadham House in Mt. Waverley from 7:30 – 9:30pm. Topics covered will include: Camera Controls, Basic Camera Operation, Composition, Lighting, Digital Workflow and Editing, The mode dial, Exposure, Metering and Exposure Compensation.

Classes will be limited to 6-8 students to allow for maximum interaction between pupils and teachers. You will need to bring your camera with you every week and ideally it should be an SLR rather than a compact point and shoot camera.

The two terms will run as follows:

Term 2 commences Monday 25th July
Term 3 commences Monday 10th October

As well as the 9 Monday night lessons each term will also include 2 outings (on a Sunday) and possibly a night shoot.

The cost is $225 and needs to be paid by the first lesson. The price includes membership to Waverley Camera Club for 2011 but if you have already joined this year your membership fees will be deducted from the $225.
