WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

2023 marked a transformative year for Patrick Cameron as he bid farewell to his thriving 30-year-old UK-based business, relocated to New Zealand, and embarked on a new venture – the online education platform, Access Long Hair. This pivotal shift brought about a refreshing embrace of technology, connecting with hairdressers through online Masterclasses, and exploring innovative avenues for creative expression.

Since April of last year, Patrick has delved into the creative possibilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI). While much has been discussed about AI, especially within the creative community where both fear and fascination abound, Patrick sees it as a tool that enables him to seamlessly transition from working on a technique on a mannequin head to transforming it into a model without altering the original hairstyle he meticulously crafted.

This fusion of the real and the imagined isn't a simple click-of-a-button process; rather, it's a labor-intensive and occasionally infuriating endeavor. Yet, the end results surpass what can be achieved through traditional physical photoshoots.

The collection, aptly named "Fusion," captures the essence of this creative process by marrying hands-on expertise in hairstyling with AI image generation. Each hairstyle showcased in the collection comes with corresponding step-by-step tutorials available on the Access Long Hair Platform, now recognized as one of the largest online Long Hair educational platforms globally.

Don't miss the chance to witness Patrick Cameron live on stage. The masterclass promises an enriching educational experience presented with Patrick's unique charm and larger-than-life personality. Seize this opportunity to be part of a groundbreaking exploration at the intersection of artistry and technology.
