Los Angeles Digital Imaging Group Blog

Lee Varis has announced Lightroom Workflow classes at the Icon, on Wednesdays, May 6, 13, and 20. If you’re just getting started with Adobe Lightroom, this class will cover what you need to know to get started and improve your productivity.

Class Topic: Setting Up a Digital Image Workflow

class will cover configuring a Lightroom based imaging workflow including:

· Basic organization of folders, file names and hard drives
· Setting up a Lightroom Catalog
· Backup strategies
· Automation techniques
· Working with the Lightroom Library

The basic idea is to set up your working methods in the most efficient way for consistent results and to establish an image archive that is flexible and expandable without working yourself into a corner. Each of the classes will cover the same material with enough time for a question and answer session at the end to address specific needs of individual photographers.

Please register in advance to reserve a seat for the free Wednesday evening classes.

We’ve had a number of free digital imaging classes at the Icon photo lab. These Digital Image Workflow classes focus on the same topic for one month so classes will repeat at least 4 times, always on Wednesday evening. If you have to miss a class one week it will repeat the next week – each month will feature a new topic.

Icon Customer Service Lounge

Day: Every Wednesday

Time: 7:00PM – 8:30PM

No Class May 27th! I’ve noticed that not everyone who signs up shows up… it is a FREE class so… if a class appears to be sold out, you are welcome to come by and see if there are any available seats. If you have reserved a seat and you don’t arrive by 7:00 your seat my be given out.

Seating is limited to 15 people so please register online in advance to secure a seat. I’ve turned over the registration to the Icon but they have not set up a method to sign up for a specific class – don’t worry, just register and we’ll figure things out at each class. You don’t have to attend all the classes as they repeat until we get to June when the next topic starts.
