Diary of a Creative Storyteller - with Melissa Richard

$49.00

Are you a storyteller who feels like you’ve lost your creativity? Do you long to tell stories that draw the viewer in and capture the imagination? We take photos to tell stories, but how do we infuse them with creativity and connection? And, to take it one step further, how do we KEEP those creative juices flowing and avoid falling into a rut or burning out?

With a course packed full of imagery to help motivate and ignite your own creative process, Melissa is here to share all of her tips and tricks with you. She shares how she finds ways to bring that extra bit of “wow factor” to her images, how she manipulates dramatic light, and how she uses shadows to add impact. She walks you through not only her own creative process, but also breaks it down into easy steps for you to implement into your own stories as well.

Topics include

  • Storytelling: How Melissa plans out her stories and brings them to life.

  • Story Elements: Dramatic light, mood and emotion, compositional elements and interesting compositions, movement and details.

  • Collaboration: Working WITH your children and using film and literature for inspiration.

  • Creative Gear: Getting creative with drones, phone photography (with editing tips!), and GoPros (which aren’t just for underwater shooting!).

  • Creative Subjects: Still life, self portraiture, sidewalk chalk art, intentional camera movement and macro photography.

What's included:

  • 68-page downloadable PDF filled with beautiful imagery and practical tips;

  • 10 exercises to help get your creative juices flowing;

  • 6 editing videos walking you through Melissa’s style in PS and Camera Raw; Editing videos include a slow shutter portrait (outside),  a macro image, a sunset GoPro image, a moody black and white portrait (inside), a sidewalk chalk drone image and a self-portait (outside) edit. 

  • 1 behind-the-scenes video that walks you through how Melissa captures her “inside a bubble” GoPro image as well we her snowflake images.

  • BONUS: 2nd GoPro editing video
