6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Join artist Lucy Le Brocq to learn how to tell a story through documentary photography in this two-hour workshop at ONCA.
In this workshop you will learn how to create a documentary photoshoot from start to finish.
We will go through the basics of bringing ideas to fruition transforming them into a shoot that emanates your ideas and thoughts. We will talk through ideas, generate conversations and understand what it is you want to say, whether it is your own story or somebody else’s. Through creative thinking and practices. You will learn:
- What is documentary photography? Why is it important?
- How to make someone feel comfortable, open up, and create closeness, bonding
- Learn how to pose a person through conversation
- How to light your subject through lighting techniques
