D. M. Gremlin Studios is proud to continue our presentation of the Adam Chilson Photography Workshop Series.

Our upcoming workshop event is "Back in Blacklight," a presentation of techniques for blacklight bodypainting and photography. Presenters/instructors are bodypainter Lisa Berczel of Battledress Paint-n-Body, and photographer Adam Chilson. Models are Hourglass and Nyx Valentine (see attached images).


Sponsored by Wildfire Lighting & Visual Effects and Grex Airbrushes.

Wildfire is the entertainment industry's premiere supplier of UV products and effects. Their extensive list of credits includes the Disneyland and Universal Studios worldwide theme parks, movies such as Batman Beyond, and a continuing list of movies, television, and venues across the world. Wildfire will be providing lighting fixtures for the workshop.

Grex Airbrushes is providing the airbrushes for the workshop, and will also have airbrushes for sale at the studio on the day of the event.

Lisa Berczel and Adam Chilson are a proven team, whose collaborations have produced some of the most stunning and original blacklight imagery to be found. Please see the attached image for just a few examples of their work in this medium.

Workshop date is October 25, 2008, 10am-7pm. Registration is $250, limited to 8 participants, and includes the full day course, lunch, shooting opportunities with two models in blacklight bodypaint, and promotional model releases for portfolio use of images shot at the workshop.

On the bodypainting side, this course will address safety and hygiene in product choice and procedures for blacklight bodypainting. The workshop will include demonstrations of high-end airbrush bodypainting techniques, as well as brush painting techniques that can be learned by the participants to apply at their own future shoots. On the photography end, material covered will be advanced lighting techniques as well as "tips and tricks" for photographing blacklight effects to their full eye-popping potential.

A group of images from several of our recent blacklight projects was also recently featured in "The Blacklight Blaze" for Fall, 2008 - the newsletter of our sponsor, Wildfire Lighting & Visual Effects!

Images shot by both Adam and myself, of models Michael Foster, Evina Luna, Nyx Valentine, and Hourglass are all published in the newsletter! And of course all of the bodypainting is Lisa's work. Check it out and see us "blazing" in the news!
