The digital age has given documentary photographers and photojournalists new ways to tell stories with greater authorship and control. This workshop focuses not only on how to create a personal documentary project, but also get it seen. The ultimate goal is to find a subject that speaks to a personal passion, document it in a unique visual style, then disseminate the work. New technologies to be more effective storytellers are used, including social media, transmedia, virtual reality and digital video.
Media:
Presentations, discussions, critiques, editing of work
