DAY 1: Lightroom Workflow (Industry Standard)
Adobe Lightroom is the industry standard for color correction and exposure adjustments. Professionals use it because it is non-destructive (edits don’t permanently change the original file). Students will learn exposure correction, white balance, contrast, clarity, and color grading.
Batch editing is important. Campaign photos should look consistent. Lightroom allows syncing settings across multiple images for cohesive branding.
Project Connection:
Students will edit their product photos to create a unified visual identity for their marketing campaign.
