Constructing the Fictional Photograph
Richard Tuschman
Tuition $1,095
Code P0614-26
The genre of conceptual photography gives photographers the opportunity to act as auteurs of their own fictional visual narratives. In this five-day hands-on workshop we take our gear on various locations to stage, light, direct, and photograph models on set for our own constructed narrative images. These constructed works may tell stories, suggest dreams, or reveal inner landscapes. Looking to acknowledged masters for inspiration, we compose and choreograph our scene for authentic emotional resonance. In addition, we explore and learn the core principles of lighting, and then learn new skills in digital workflow, including how to retouch, refine, and apply color grading.
