10 week photography class

Description

Maine In Focus - Express Yourself, Tell A Story. 

We will approach photography both as a craft and a form of communication - learning techniques, studying successful photographers, participating in group critiques, and taking lots of pictures. 

After ten weeks students will have created, or updated their own portfolio and submitted work to a group exhibit. The syllabus will include fundamentals of composition, understanding the nature of light, how to use your camera, how to approach your subject, fundamentals of editing + critique, story development and project workflow, photography as a visual communication, and understanding the differences between journalism and corporate communication. 

Classes will meet at LA Arts in Lewiston, Maine every Tuesday at 5:30pm from September 14th through November 16th and taught by Michael Kleinfeld, whose work can be seen at michaelkleinfeld.com. 

Students provide their own camera, which can include phones, DSLRs, etc.
