This group meets once per month and is for photographers and media artists who are looking for long-term support and continuity while working on a project. We’ll discuss different approaches on how to best tell the story that fits each student’s individual project. During these monthly critiques we’ll also cover story structure, research, composition, editing, and documentary and conceptual approaches. This group is also a way to simply talk about anything related to photography to get inspired: we’ll look at other photographers’ work, discuss technical issues, and talk about how to best present the final project (on the web, in book form, an exhibition, or as a multimedia piece). A guest speaker (to be announced) will present their work and share their experience. This class is limited to 7 students only and each session runs for 3 hours with a 10 minute break. Includes a private 1-on-1 session.

 

Please note: 1) Students must submit a selection of at least 10 images or a link to their website to be accepted to this class. 2) Students should either already be working on a project, or have a project idea at the beginning of the class.
 
As a photographer, I had many stories to tell but I didn't know how to evolve from photo-taker to storyteller. Anja generously shared her experience and through weekly assignments and her constructive critiques, she gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed. I'll always value her guidance as a turning point in my photography career.

I want to tell you again that your class was great. I'm very inspired. Is there any chance you and Edward can continue this class? I don't want it to end!! It encompasses everything I love.
