SUMMARY:Documentary Storytelling II: The Next Step with Lisa Kessler (Online)
DESCRIPTION:© Lisa Kessler
 
 The Griffin Museum and Lisa Kessler are pleased to present an online
  class designed to help photographers develop a long-term project
  within a supportive and productive learning environment. 
 
 Documentary storytelling draws on the compositional awareness of
  street photography\, the intimacy of family and personal work\, and
  the depth that emerges through sustained observation. Whether
  participants are working with strangers\, within their own
  communities\, or on subjects of personal concern\, this class
  encourages thoughtful approaches to photographing people and places
  through individual perspective and intention. 
 
 Over five sessions\, participants will share and refine their work
  through assignments\, discussions\, and group critiques. Emphasis is
  placed on clarifying project and narrative ideas\, strengthening
  visual decision-making\, and exploring how form\, content\, and
  sequencing shape meaning. The course fosters compassionate and
  constructive engagement with subjects\, peers\, and audiences alike. 
 
 Participants may continue an existing project\, begin a new one\, or
  use the workshop to explore new directions in their photographic
  practice. All camera formats and processes are welcome\, including
  smartphone photography. The workshop culminates in a short\, edited
  image sequence that advances each participant's project.
