The James Nachtwey & David Alan Harvey Bangkok Photography Workshop
Bangkok. The city is a tapestry of life, both modern and ancient. On one street you can see millionaires in Mercedes on their way to work, street kids and lepers begging for coins, monks on their way to temple, prostitutes trying to hustle a few customers, and vast shopping malls filled with the latest designer goods, an elephant with its handler cruising through traffic. Thai society is chaotic and complex and Bangkok is the epicenter of that chaos.
The James Nachtwey & David Alan Harvey Bangkok Workshop is designed to take advantage of all that Bangkok offers. Students will have the opportunity to shoot an assignment for one week with either instructor, depending on your personal preference and photographic style. The aim is to help students get passed the concept of one good picture and venture into the realm of visual storytelling and producing a picture story.
Students will be expected to produce a photographic essay as if working on an assignment with a major magazine to complete with a looming deadline. When not on the streets of Bangkok shooting their story, students will be editing and working closely with either James Nachtwey or David Alan Harvey to make sure the essay is complete and that the student’s style is refined.
The James Nachtwey & David Alan Harvey Workshop is not designed for novice photographers. We are looking for the emerging, committed photographer, semi professionals and professionals who are seeking to work on their style and take their photography to the next level. All participants must completely understand and be comfortable with their digital camera and lenses, as well as their laptop computer including any major photo-editing software like Aperture or Photo Mechanic. The workshop will not provide cameras or laptop computers.
The James Nachtwey & David Alan Harvey Bangkok Workshop will cost $2,750 including hotel with breakfast and two dinners. Participants who live in Bangkok, or have other accommodations will pay $2,150.
24 November 2007 - 30 November 2007.
