Moving from single images to series can be an intimidating and confusing process. Which are the criteria for choosing the images that will make up a series? Is it possible to do it objectively? How to set the order of each once selected?
In this two-day practical and theoretical workshop we will not only answer these questions, but will also review some specific examples that will help you visualize this process clearly. After the sessions you'll have the tools to establish your own methodology to get the best of your work and build powerful photographic series.
If you are a photographer —amateur or professional— with experience in street photography and want to jump from individual images to the construction of more complex narratives through photographic series, this workshop is absolutely for you.
The final selected series of each participant will be shown during the festival weekend.
*Editing: Selecting the final frames that will conform a series, an exhibition, a book, etc. Sometimes the term editing is used to refer to post-production or processing, which is the stage whereby images are adjusted in terms of color, contrast, saturation, etc.
