Everyone always asks Ori Bengal (OMP Member 68600) how he creates such vibrant and often surreal images. Ori has gone on a 2 year road trip to take more pictures, meet more people, and teach his wisdom. Now for the 1st time ever he is offering a one day workshop where he will teach the secrets to his creative workflow! On February 17th -and again on the 18th- in San Diego, Ori is holding his Smash The Box Creativity Workshop, where you can learn:

* How to create images that stand out from the rest!
* How to think outside the box!
* How to work with models- create action poses and facial expressions that jump off the page!
* How to work with props... even props you didn't know were props!
* How to create amazing images on a VERY limited budget!
* How to work with what you already have!
* How to work with available lighting, studio lights, or just a flash to create mood, depth, or just a more professional looking image!

While this workshop focuses on the photography and thought aspects of creating an image, Ori will also delve into various Photoshop concepts such as:

* How (and why) to work with RAW Files to save a lot of time, have more control, and get your images looking exactly the way you'd like!
* How to create and find the elements you need for those unique images!
* How to take your existing images and make them get a lot more attention!

This workshop will be held at a studio, with models provided so you can create your own images. It is for all skill levels- beginners and professionals are all welcome. You need to bring yourself, a notebook, a pen, your camera, memory cards, and a Flash if you have one. You may also bring a CD with images that you have questions about how to improve them.
Since Ori wants to help as many people as possible, this workshop is ONLY $50! Not only that, but it will be videotaped, and aired on OMP TV (However, watching it, and experiencing it are two different things)!

Contact workshops@CouchSurfingOri.com with any questions, or to make payment. Payment will be accepted by paypal or credit card through paypal. You must e-mail Ori to sign up, as there are only 50 spots open, and they are filling up very quickly! Since demand is so high, there will be a repeat of the workshop on the 18th, so that 50 more people can learn the secrets to unique imagery! Check CouchSurfing.com to read up on Ori's adventures (although it is still being developed). Be sure to let Ori know you saw this here on POTN.
