About this Event
Step beyond traditional portrait photography and discover how to create stunning visual effects live and entirely in-camera. Jordi Koalitic will show you simple, repeatable techniques that transform ordinary portraits into cinematic works of art using light, motion, reflections, and practical effects.
This workshop is designed for photographers and creators who want to produce high-impact imagery without relying on heavy post-production, CGI, or AI-generated visuals.
Jordi will take you through three creative live setups:
Set-up #1 LIGHT PAINTING PORTRAITS
Learn how to combine long exposure with LED tools and motion techniques to create dynamic streaks, shapes, and energy around your subject while keeping the portrait sharp and cinematic.
Set-up #2 SCREEN & REFLECTION EFFECTS
Discover how to use monitors, tablets, glass, textures, and reflective surfaces to project colors, textures, and moving visuals directly onto your subject for surreal in-camera effects.
Set-up #3 THE SATURN SPARKLER EFFECT
Watch a miniature Saturn come to life using practical effects, floating elements, controlled lighting, and real sparkler rings — creating a jaw-dropping portrait effect entirely live on set.
Throughout the workshop, Jordi will break down:
- Lighting setups
- Camera settings
- Long exposure techniques
- Motion control
- Practical effects
- Creative direction
- How to create “wow” images without complex gear
Whether you’re a portrait photographer, content creator, or creative enthusiast, this experience will push you to think differently, experiment boldly, and create images that truly stand out.
No AI. No CGI. Just light, motion, and creativity!
Please Note: This is a don't miss in-person event that is also livestreamed on the Adorama YouTube channel.
