Description:
This workshop is aimed at visual storytellers with an emphasis on
photography but the techniques and issues covered will overlap with film
and other media. We will look at the obstacles and practical solutions
to long-term projects \u2013 how to identify a story, how to gain access to
spaces and communities, and the ethics involved. The workshop will ask
questions like, How am I uniquely qualified to tell this story? Should I
be telling this story? What is my obligation to the people and spaces I
work in and with? How do I create a story about a very personal topic?
We will talk about real life experiences and will also touch on how to
make things happen and what to do with finished projects \u2013 funding,
publishing and exhibition\/screening possibilities. The workshop will be
theoretical (we’re not going to make work together) but the participants
are expected to ask questions, be open and respectful, and be willing to
participate in group discussions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Who can join:
Anyone interested in visual storytelling. Maybe you’ve already created
stories and are looking for inspiration, maybe you’re too scared to
start, maybe you’re in the middle of a project and looking for guidance.
No previous experience in necessary and people from all backgrounds and
cultural experiences are encouraged to apply.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
