Photography Workshop Series
Have you always wanted to get into photography, but never knew where to start? Well this workshop will cover the basics of photography over 5 sessions (one being a photography moment) and a small exposition to be planned at the end.
Content:
This workshop will start with an introduction of the theory of photography and its techniques, plus basic post-production procedures (digital). Then we will study the form of a photo, its composition rules, what gives that pleasant sensation to the eye.
Having ascertained what makes a picture well taken, we will go deep in what makes photos original & interesting, we will then discuss photography as a mean to tell stories (how to combine more pictures together) and how to find our own way to do photography, borrowing some ideas from psychology and mindfulness.
There will be an optional photography session outdoors, in a place to decide together, and every participant will be encouraged to complete a little project, in the span of one month, that will be revised together with the others in group. Eventually, the works could be shown during a small and casual exposition at the International House Leuven.
