Reportage Photography Workshops - with Stephen Dupont & Jack Picone

At the end of August, Reportage Photography Workshops will hold its second roving workshop in Kathmandu. Run by award-winning documentary photographer Jack Picone, and Stephen Dupont, the acclaimed photojournalist, and filmmaker, the aim of the workshop is to help attendees produce a documentary photo essay with a striking visual narrative, to be shown on the final evening of the workshop.

Tutors will hold individual and group sessions to supervise and edit the assignments, and dialogue intensively on topics such as photographic composition, portraiture, basic camera techniques, how to research ideas and tell an original story, how to market a body of work, and how to hone your personal style. The workshop is very project based as opposed to technically driven. It is limited to just 12 participants.

Traditional Photo Essay and Multimedia: During the workshop participants will have an option to produce a completed photo essay within documentary tradition or in a more contemporary context, a multimedia. In both cases, tutors will be on hand to guide you through the respective process.
