ONLINE COURSE
Visual Storytelling — Developing Your Own Voice
Would you like to start a new project but don’t quite know how? Or are you looking for new ideas for something you’re already working on? We’ll discuss a variety of approaches to visual storytelling — ways of shooting, story structure, research, composition, editing and sequencing, and documentary and conceptual approaches. We’ll also look at work by other photographers to analyze the tools they used for creative storytelling, including adding non-photographic elements. This class meets every few weeks and assignments will be customized to each student, to help you develop your own individual photographic voice.
