From time to time, Warren or Ron demonstrate a complete workflow from beginning to end. We'll supply you with the Data Sets and Process Icons so you can process along and observe the steps and techniques used. Look over the shoulder of these PixInsight Ambassadors, and get a peek into how and why they make their image processing decisions.
The series covers Monochromatic, One-Shot Color, and Narrowband processing.

Artful Imaging
Workshop Series
Our Beginner and Intermediate workshop series told you which levers to pull, and when. Now, as an advanced PI user, it’s time to explore your creativity in our Artful Imaging series. These live, interactive workshops use different approaches to hone your artistic eye, particularly in the later stages of your processing workflow.
Our Advanced 'Artful Imaging' series includes the following Workshops:
-
Your take: Participants will each process the same set of master frames, which will be provided one week prior to the workshop. We’ll look at as many of your results as there is time for, and provide suggestions for enhancement.
-
Our take: Participants will submit their own PI projects containing final image(s) ahead of time. A few will be selected and reviewed in detail from an aesthetic perspective, including both composition and processing.
-
‘Mr Fix-It’: Participants will submit image processing challenges ahead of time. A few will be selected and explored in detail.
Artful Imaging is offered on a yearly basis with participation limited to 30 users. Although we include this workshop in some of our yearly subscriptions, the recorded workshops are not offered for sale individually. Look for an email when this series is offered and reserve your seat.

We’re excited to offer yearly Subscription Options, designed to meet the needs of all PixInsight users. Whether you’re looking for comprehensive access or a more focused experience, we have the plan for you!
