Photo Workshop in German: So entstehen dynamische Bilder

Interested in this class? Email us and we'll notify you next time it runs.

Live online class in German co-presented with Forum Journalismus und Medien Wien (fjum) in Vienna, Austria. This class will be presented entirely in German.

Dieser Kurs richtet sich an Journalist*innen, die keine gelernten Fotograf*innen sind und für ihre Geschichten eigene Fotos machen und ihr fotografisches Sehen verbessern wollen – egal ob mit Smartphone oder anderen Kameras ausgerüstet. In diesem live online Fotografie-Workshop lernen Sie, was ein gutes Bild ausmacht und wie Sie dynamische Bilder produzieren. Durch Hands-On-Übungen mit der Kamera zwischen den Online-Sessions üben Sie Linien, Schatten, Farben und Menschen auf kreative Weise in die Bildkomposition zu integrieren und verbessern so Ihr fotografisches Sehen. Gemeinsam wird analysiert, wann ein Bildaufbau funktioniert und wie Sie effizient editieren. Arbeiten anderer Fotografen und Fotografinnen werden besprochen, um Sie für Ihre eigenen Fotoprojekte zu inspirieren.

 

 
Since I haven't had the opportunity to study photography formally, I needed a course that would help me acquire an awareness of the composition skills I was thinking about unconsciously. Anja helped me improve my observation skills, both explaining the main elements of composition, with reference to the techniques used by other photographers, and through shooting exercises and group critique, which took me, week after week, to intentionally compose the frame in order to develop a narrative.

I have learned much from Anja and StrudelmediaLive classes. She and the other teachers are very well accomplished on the technical and artistic sides of photography, helping me to grow in both areas. Anja has a creative mind and is very pleasant to work with — very important traits for a photography mentor. I look forward to more classes with her and the other teachers.
