TODD HIDO

PARIS / 3 DAYS WORKSHOP

3th to 5th FEBRUARY 2017 // Deadline: 10th January 2017

Don't miss the opportunity to spend 3 days with Todd Hido in Paris!

This workshop will focus on experiences, strategies, and influences that form and shape a photographer's career.

It's a chance to receive expert feedback from one of the best contemporary photographers who has twenty-five years of experience making books and exhibitions.

Todd Hido will share his skill and the intricate and honest parts of his photographic process through personal discussion between him and the participants.

He will describe in detail the process of book-making and the importance of making decisions. He will break it down to the essential steps that need to be made and how one choice does not fit all.

Todd Hido will present his own work and provide answers to the questions all photographers ask themselves:

Where does my work come from?

What does it say?

How can I express myself more effectively?

What images work the best?

What sequence and context for these images works best?

Where and how do you show your work?

He will review students' portfolios and will give personalized feedback and tasks for improvement.
