Description:
The primary objective of the course is to provide students with hands-on technical photography experience while familiarizing them with theoretical background. The workshop examines the role of intuition and motivation in creating photographic art, and emphasis is placed on the study of composition, development, scripting, camera operation and post-production. The student is given the opportunity to create an independent project of their choice in order to practically explore each of these themes. Photography workshops are open to all students studying with Expanish! **Have Facebook?** Get the inside scoop on what Expanish students are up to by joining our Facebook FanPage.
