Class Size: 12 max
What if a single photo could tell an entire story?
In this fun and imaginative two-day photography workshop, young creatives will explore how photographers use angles, light, perspective and storytelling to create exciting, cinematic images. Through hands-on creative challenges, students will experiment with character portraits, action photography, visual illusions, storytelling scenes and collaborative photo tasks designed to spark curiosity and confidence behind the camera.
Led by photographer, actress and educator Danielle Pears, students will learn how to think creatively, direct ideas, work as a team and capture photographs that are playful, expressive and uniquely their own. Designed especially for juniors, this workshop encourages imagination, experimentation and seeing the world from a whole new perspective.
