Developing Your Personal Project.

Alec Soth.

Developing Your Personal Project.

The goal of this workshop is to help photographers develop and realize full-scale personal projects (while honing your ping-pong skills!). Along with sharing his own work, Alec Soth will lead group critiques and meet with participants individually. Topics discussed will be narrative, sequencing, text, and distribution through publishing, exhibitions, and performance. Special emphasis will be given to creative roadblocks. Participants will be given assignments and exercises that help them expand the boundaries of their practice.
