Coming Soon - Shared Album
Tonight seminar participants will get an email with an invitation to the 2018 Studio shared album. All photos will be posted to one album. You can post from Photos on your iPhone, iPad or Mac computer. Two examples demonstrate this activity.
First Assignment: Use the Apple Camera to capture a subject and use touch to focus and change brightness. Hint: Look up. Look down. Sit or squat to lower your eyeline. Make adjustments to the photo in post production using Apple Photos features (not extensions, yet).
Second Assignment: Use Camera+ Macro mode to capture a subject. Try using a challenging lighting situation like backlit or low light situation. Practice adjusting your exposure by sliding across the scale. Remember that this image might be in Camera+ Lightbox where you can edit and Export or Save to All Photos/Camera Roll.
In both situations take several photos and zoom in to check focus to select your best image. Delete the others.
Third and Fourth Assignments: Post each photo to the 2018 Studio shared album and add a comment to specify the camera app and iPhone used.
Fifth Assignment: Review the photos posted by our group. Shared Albums allows "Subscribers" to mark a photo with a Heart icon (aka "Like") or to write comments as question, critique or encouragement.
I've broken this into micro steps, hoping to make the activity clear. This is not intended to be time consuming. Especially since you always have your camera with you.

Ready. Set. Go!
Greetings & Finally! Our seminar begins this week.
Please review the website AGAIN. For the new folks please review the Prep page and download the Day 1 and Day 2 apps. Watching the videos will help you get up-to-speed. For the repeating folks, watching the videos will be a great warm-up and remind you of some of the features you know but forget to use.
Everyone should print the nine page App Handout so you can take notes and capture app ideas from peers. Also, consider printing the READING VIEW of Cheatsheet page for reference.
Remember - bring your iPhone fully charged. Ditto on iPad if you have one.
If you are on the Waitlist for this seminar, don't be shy about visiting this website often and stay as long as it takes to view the videos and download a few new apps.

App List & Handout Ready
This website has been updated for the Spring 2018 semester. You will find the Day page details have been scaled back. The Apps page is updated with new links and some apps are now options while others are recommended. In case you miss it, the App Reference is a PDF document to use as your guide and note taking space. While I suggest you print it out, you might also load it into iBooks or another PDF helper app for on-the-go reference. Use the Apps page for direct links to the apps we will be using/discussing/demonstrating.
See you soon!
See you soon!

Example Workflow
During Spring 2017 semester I created Easy Workflow - Apple Photos for Editing and Posting to Shared Albums video and posted it to YouTube. The demo quickly covers editing in Apple Photos and launching Camera+ as a Photos Extension for additional edits before posting the finished photo to an Apple Shared Photos Album (restricted to just seminar participants). Watch this video to preview the workflow for our activities.
