Recorded Livestream workshop: Art nude contortion & flexibility #NSFW (5h duration).

  • 799,00 kr
Tax included.


Have you ever photographed a nude contortionist - or someone with extreme flexibility?

When working with flexible models, there are some unique things to take into consideration. And when you do that, the images can become magnetic.

  • How is lighting done when the body is frequently inverted?
  • How and why do you compose the image for the best effect?
  • How do you arrive at that particular striking pose instead of something else?
  • How to best economize the model's stamina.
  • Image development and post-processing process.  And how much of the image is lighting, and how much is editing?

In short:
How an outstanding image with a contortionist is created from start to end.

Creating "Flexible imagery" (for lack of a better word) can be approached very differently. Most contortionists (and dancers) are extremely strong and have unique physical capabilities and a unique physique that you might as well utilize. I will apply all my skill to create visually eye-catching images, that are stylish, sensual, and perhaps with a humoristic twist while showing you how I get the best out of the model.

This day will be the closest thing you will get to be a fly on the wall at a professional Art Nude photoshoot, with one significant difference:

Alongside seeing how I do everything at a shoot, you will get a running commentary on why I do the things I do, and you can hear and understand the thought process and reasoning behind it. And even better, because weøll record the Livestream you with be able to access it again and again so you are sure you get everything out of the workshop. In many ways that's even better than on a physical workshop.

Thomas and the model Ylva Maia created several different flexible nude images during the 5 hours duration of this workshop (this edited workshop has all the pauses edited out).

Thomas will cover selecting the best image while discussing why that is the best one, developing the image, and retouching and post-process at least one of the selected images.
And you will get to see how everything is done.

This recorded Livestream workshop is a unique opportunity to see and understand how Thomas Holm creates images from concept to post-processing like the images below.

You are not attending a random low-quality videoconference call btw. This is a professional setup streamed and recorded in full HD (1920x1080) using a multicamera setup and lighting, as well as professional sound equipment in a 250m2/2500sqm studio.
