Intentional Camera Movement

In this 90-minute class, we will cover the basis of Intentional Camera Movement (ICM). 

This will provide you with the basic understanding of how to capture an ICM image and make the image successful.

  • Suggested subject matter
  • Direction of movement to fit with subject
  • Common errors and how to avoid them
  • Basic edits in Adobe Camera RAW / Lightroom Develop

  • How to operate a ND filter
