Would you like to bring your photography to the next level by telling richer stories with your images? In this class we’ll explore techniques for developing a strong narrative and building sequenced stories, and how adding non-photography elements can enrich the overall message. We'll look at work by other photographers to analyze story structure and we'll examine the methods and tools they use for creative storytelling — including adding text, drawings, archival and “found” photos, and more. Examples will be presented on how a story can be told in different ways on different platforms (web-based, book-form, mail art, and installation). Through weekly critique, exercises, and discussion, you’ll deepen your photography practice and develop your own visual voice.
A special highlight of the workshop will be a live online tour through the C/O Berlin group exhibition “Send Me an Image: From Postcards to Social Media” with the show's curator, Felix Hoffmann, on Thursday, May 6 at 12pm EST (6pm Berlin time).
