VIVID: Beyond The Lights

Explore how the lights of VIVID can change your perception of the city. Extend your photography beyond the hero shots of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Ted's Cameras and Sony invite you to join Architect and Sony Advocate, Timothy Moon, for a night of capturing VIVID beyond the lights.

With the opportunity to experience the latest Sony Alpha cameras and lenses, explore the city whilst learning a new way of seeing, aided by Tim's unique Architectural vision, and discovering how there's more to VIVID than first meets the eye. Step away from the predictable and push your creative boundaries. This is an opportunity to see, capture and experience VIVID in a new way.

What You Will Learn

The evening commences with a brief introduction to Tim's approach to Architectural Photography, discussing such things as the impact of perspective correction, the use and sometimes avoidance of symmetry, simile, metaphor, narrative and other techniques to create compelling visual storytelling. Timothy will also cover the practical aspects of camera settings for tripod free capture, the impact of lens selection, and how to approach familiar subjects with fresh eyes.
