Digital
Still Photography underwater
is a combination of properly setting up and shooting photos
of divers and marine life, then going topside and using
a computer to enhance them. Through
the use of the latest affordable five or better megapixel
cameras and Adobe Photoshop photo editing program, you
learn to achieve outstanding underwater photographs fast.
Once you accomplish digital editing, you practice storing
photos on CD or DVD, printing photos and downloading them
onto the Internet.

Digital
Videography is
a marvelous media for taking underwater movies. Consumer
digital video cameras today produce broadcast quality
video (520+ lines of resolution) with a minimal investment.

The
quality is over twice that of most VHS and 8-mm camcorders.
At the Institute, you learn to use the latest digital
video cameras and lighting systems. You also storyboard,
shoot and edit a complete "customer's vacation experience"
video using Adobe Premiere and place it on CD, DVD or
VHS.

The
Digital Photography and Videography Program at Hall’s
gives you very unique and marketable skills to take to
dive industry employers. If you are already an Instructor,
it also qualifies you to teach customers photo or video
speciality courses. The photographic digital production
of this catalog was done entirely in-house by Institute
trainers. The same trainers guide you during the Digital
Photography and Videography Program to help you emulate
the same type of quality photographic results you see
here.
