Tuition: Sliding Scale

This One session in-person workshop students will explore compositional techniques like the rule of thirds, obstruction, repetition, and leading lines, and play with how we photograph the relationship between space and the human body. The first half of the class will be spent exploring specific compositional techniques, and the second half will be spent free-shooting a dance model through Root Division’s building. Bring whichever camera you have available, whether is a professional DSLR, film camera or your phone camera. All other materials will be provided by Root Division. Please note: This class will occur in person at Root Division, located at 1131 Mission Street in SF.
