Weekend Seminar
Reportage, portrait, essay
Take photographs of a found or invented subject about a person or a group and show in black-and-white or color what you have to tell.
Whether direct, close, shrill, poetic, illustrative, associative or mysterious – after 10 meetings over the year, you can achieve a presentable work as a reportage, portrait series or essay.
The group discussion is the protected space for criticising and receiving criticism. In need I will show examples and ask questions to help you on the way.
Certainly, you will reach a new goal beyond yourself. You will discover a hitherto unknown experience for your photography
What is the effect of your photography and why?
