Free Photography Education Class- Pilot Program for new Charity - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

StreetEG · 02-03-2013, 11:45 AM

Whats going on TST--- I have been dedicating a lot of my free time to building this program--- and I wanted to share it with you guys since i have spent a good amount of time in this forums.

Moments is a registered 501c3 charity who's mission is to provide free photography education to high school students in New York City.

We are opening our class up to the public to pilot new curriculum. Classes start Saturday, February 9th and we are currently accepting applications until Wednesday, February 6th at Midnight. The class is 100% free to take only requiring you to bring your own camera, a desire to learn, and an open mind. It is written and taught by a great teacher and you will change your life by taking this class.

The class meets for 2 hours every Saturday for 10 weeks. 5 Classroom sessions, and 5 "field trips" that will visit galleries, studios, and various related activities to inspire and educate.

Primary Objectives of the class:

Students are empowered to make photographs that express a vision of their own.
Students are able to discuss and make connections with other photographers as well as the work produced within their class.
Students will learn that photography is a form of communication that can be used for personal and universal narrative.
Students will be able to utilize the manual functions of their camera to support their ideas.

If you are interested-- either shoot me a PM-- or apply here.

Very cool! Shame it's so far away.

Bump for a great oppurtunity to learn some photography skills!

Ya the charity was founded in the city--- so all of our connections to local talent, teachers, galleries and studios is in the NYC area--- but the class really is worth the trip--- especially for beginners. We start with the exposure triangle and move throughout all the functions on the camera to the point where we teach concepts and composition. Thanks for the support and if anyone wants to donate, time, products or money to help us get off the ground--- or have connections to help us do that please hit me up!
