It also gives the photographer the freedom to mix media and work sculpturally. This class is for photographers who have experience with digital printing, and would like to work with a specific material, such as silk, which they will select in advance, in consultation with the instructor. Students should have a cohesive selection of images that they would like to realize as a project or portfolio during the workshop.

Oct 26–27 & Nov 2–3 | Sat & Sun 10 AM–5 PM Stephen Ferry | 19FCEPJ009 $460 + $25 fee In the language of photojournalism, we constantly refer to “the story.” Indeed, photographers often call themselves “visual storytellers.” Yet it is not always clear how to define and tell “the story.” Furthermore, as the field of documentary photography confronts a historic lack of diversity, the question of who tells the stories of our time is a major concern. This workshop sharpens your ability to define the stories you wish to tell and provides you with narrative tools to tell them. Students are required to complete one major project over the duration of the class, for presentation to the group.
