Presenting and discussing your own work is a much needed skill for all creative practitioners, but it can feel stressful and difficult. This online course with Norwegian Artist Stig M Weston will feel like 'training' sessions on different ways to present your work, whether it is to an audience, a gallerist or an editor and get them engaged in what you do. It is a place to discuss and present your project and your photographs with others, and get constructive feedback, from our instructors, and your fellow participants, on how to improve. The process will also deepening your own understanding of your artistic path.
There will be lectures on how to present a photographic project to an audience. You will understand what is important to highlight to get peoples attention on a project, and see the benefit from knowing how to discuss your own work, and being able to communicate the deeper meaning behind it.
As a group we will learn through thoughtful and creative discussions of all the participants projects, while you get to hone your own presentation technique.
The underlying focus throughout this online class will be on understanding your own project and personal photographic vision.
We will invite a couple of guest photographers to present their work, which gives an opportunity to get feedback on your work and presentation from them. Former guest have been photographer Karoline Hjort, Charlie Hay and Katinka Goldberg.
In between meetings you will be given homework assignments to digest and delve deeper into the discussions we have had.
