Digital Biography

Looking to become a photographer/journalist? All you need is a good story. Give yourself a leg up this summer by enrolling in The Image Flow’s one-week photojournalism course. Learn from industry documentarians, writers, and photographers how to conceptualize, prepare, and develop your own photo story. The focus will be overcoming the challenges of photojournalists, learning invaluable editing skills, and producing a great story for your projected audience. The end product will be a resolved photojournalistic piece as well as a your own article in our first ever FLOW magazine. Students will need access to a camera and laptop during the week of class. Classes are limited to 12 students. Lunch provided daily by R.S.V.P. Catering.
