Friday, November 25, 2011 at 10:07 AM ApertureExpert Live Training Session 012: Adjustments; Color, Black & White, and More!
Welcome to the twelfth ApertureExpert Live Training session!
What, you missed the last ones? That’s easily fixable with a visit to the Live Training catalog, $2 each and a large HD download.
This session is the fifth in a series of the deep-dive into Adjustments in Aperture 3. In session 008 we started with the Exposure and Enhance tools, in 009 we covered White Balance and Highlights & Shadows, in 10 we hit on Levels, and in 11 we did Curves. This installment will start into “the rest of them”, kicking off with Colors, Black & White, and probably more (depending on time). These are the less used but still very useful tools, and I’ll also show you how to use the Color tool to remove digital noise—without using de-noise algorithms (which I’ve never liked)!
on Tues/Wed, Nov 29/30th (check your time zone!) at…
Los Angeles: 5:30 pm (1730 Tuesday Nov 29)
New York: 8:30 pm (2030)

Agenda
30 minutes - lesson
15 minutes - Q&A
Questions (Q&A)
Feel free to submit your ON-TOPIC question(s) any time during the session, however they will not be addressed until the Q&A. If you’re thinking of submitting a question, take your time to craft it into a logical, coherent question that I can read live and answer without needing further info. IT’S LIKELY NOT ALL QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED—we simply won’t have time.
If you don’t get your question answered live, feel free to post it in the forum.
Download
Remember, you’re watching this for free, but the paid $2 downloadable version will be available at here at ApertureExpert.tv within 24 hours after the session. Even if you get to watch live, if you enjoyed the session, I’d certainly appreciate the support of buying the download anyway. Naturally you’re under no obligation to do so, but it’ll help keep us “on the air”!
That’s it! Enjoy the session.

Excellent presentation. I highly recommend the entire series.
Another great training session from Joseph...if you want to get a real understanding of Aperture 3 these videos (and this website) are essential!!
Joseph is has excellent content but he speaks so fast I find it difficult to follow. Just a teeny bit slower would be great.
This was my first of the series, and what a nice relaxed style and easy to understand explanation of the concepts.
I am a teeny bit miffed that I hadn't found out about it earlier as some of the other sessions also would suit my needs, so I bought them!
Finally began to get my head around the color brick and how the 'radius' works was well explained.
The occasional aside pieces of information, like reducing color noise was always fresh and relevant. And the explanation of why us old photographers have a bunch of odd colored filters laying around from 'film' days made me smile.
Thanks for your time, and for making the sessions free.
I will be back for more.
