Hunt’s Photo Education presents an opportunity to not only expand your creativity, but to learn about photographers, past and present, in our new series “Their Lens/Your Lens”. In these online classes, you will have an opportunity to learn about a photographer—their background, their time, and their work—then create your own work based on the photographer’s style.
The layout of these sessions: We will advertise a specific topic that attendees will work on for a three month span. Attendees will NOT know the photographers prior to registering—just the general topic—which gives the attendees no preconceptions and a clean slate! We will meet in an online session for an introduction on the photographer. Then, you will have roughly three weeks to complete work in the style of that photographer. We will then reconvene for an image review and introduction to the next photographer.
Some of the best work can be created when you are given specific parameters, working in the style of another photographer is an excellent way to not only develop your photography skills, but also your personal style!
This Session’s Topic- Human Stories
Our first three photographers will be centered around documentary with empathy, with a shared theme of human stories and social context.
In our first session, we will have an introduction to the first photographer. Attendees will have until prior to the second session to submit their images.
At the second session, we will review attendee’s work, then present the second photographer. Once again, attendees will have until prior to the third session to submit images.
At the third session, we will review attendee’s work and present the third photographer. Finally, attendees will have until prior to the fourth session to submit images.
At the fourth session, we will review attendee’s work and wrap up the series!
All meeting times 7pm ET unless otherwise noted.
Session 1- January 12
Session 2- February 10
Session 3- March 12
Session 4- April 14
Registering and what is needed
After you register for this class, you will receive a confirmation email that will include information about how to access the online class, including an online ID code that you will need to get into the class. Make sure to save this information. We will also send a reminder email about 48 hours prior to the class time with that same information.
Layout of the class
The class will begin promptly at the time listed. If for some reason you cannot attend one of the sessions, don’t worry! They will be recorded and you will be able to watch them at your leisure! During each class, you are welcome to type in questions in the Question box if you have specific questions as they are asked. We will do our best to answer those questions, but if not, feel free to ask them at the end.
“You Are Being Recorded” (And Other Note Related Items)
We will be recording this class! The video will be available for download about 24-hours after the class for all attendees, so don’t worry about taking unending notes. We will send this link attendees to download and rewatch at any time. In addition to this, we will generally send out a PDF of the presentation (when applicable) and handouts on the topic. If handouts and PDFs are included, we will send it out with the link for the video.
No online classes should be shared and cannot be shared in a public environment, including with camera clubs
