In this course, Pulitzer-finalist Natalie Fobes takes you into the studio and on location to explore what makes great photos effective. The course begins with an exploration of composition. Next, Natalie details the role of color and light, describing basic color theory and showing how color contributes to the mood of a photo. She then covers how to see and work the natural light in a room or outdoor location, as well as how simple lighting setups can help you replicate the look of natural light. Natalie also examines movement and its role in still photography. She shows how a photographer can convey a sense of motion by blurring part of an image, or, conversely, how to freeze a fast-moving subject.

The Five Conversations That Deliver Accountability and Performance (232098)

Traditional feedback often fails because it assumes and prescribes. People let their pent-up emotions and judgments take control, and make no effort to understand the context behind problematic behavior. As a result, both parties end up feeling defensive and start to talk past one another. In this course, adapted from the podcast How to Be Awesome at Your Job, Jonathan Raymond shares how to let your curiosity guide conversations and communicate feedback that gets results. Jonathan goes over a simple five-step system to help you kick off a productive conversation about improvement without falling into the feedback trap. Along the way, he shares how to help people come to conclusions themselves and own the changes they make.
