Photography is a creative activity. It is fun, it gives pleasure to create beauty, to communicate. Photography is a language, with its own vocabulary and grammar. Learning how to use these is learning how to communicate through images.
In this course photographer and photography educator Arjen van de Merwe addresses the language of photography. How do I use the tools available to the photographer to make a strong image, an image that speaks? An image that tells the story I want to tell. Your grand children, your flowers, your dog, or fully abstract images, any subject is suitable.
-- Light, composition, content, timing, all these attributes can cooperate to make the photo communicate to the viewer. Arjen explains how to use them to create the image that you want to make, the image that says what you have to say. Your facilitator can not tell you which photo to make. But he can explain the language of photography, so you can tell your own story. Technical issues are addressed as and when needed, the emphasis is on the creative side of photography.
The course consists of ten sessions of three hours each. The participants use their own camera.
During the week, the participants make photographs. The photographs are discussed in the course.
By each week completing a cycle of
theory > practice > evaluation > back to theory
the participant grows his/her skills and artistry
