WHAT TO EXPECT
The goal of the photography Tour and workshop is to build a stunning portfolio, provide both theoretical and practical knowledge and improve the visual skills of the participants.
First of all, we’ll deal with topics related to visual perception such as composition, color, black and white, and spatial configuration. We will also analyze the many aspects that determine the choice of the pictures and we’ll study image processing. The participants will learn how to develop their own style.
If requested, the pictures taken will be revised on-screen sessions – submitting images directly from your media card on Bulgarelli’s Mac. We’ll learn image editing focusing on the aspects of visual art and communication. We aim to build a stunning portfolio with a coherent style by the end of the workshop.
The participants will shoot both individually and with Marco Bulgarelli within a flexible schedule, adjusted to their individual needs. Because the workshop is both theoretical and practical based, there is plenty of time to get out and practice the new techniques and ask questions. Tuscany photo tour and workshop.
