Focusing Spot: A Creative Space for Young Photographers – Self Portraiture

Houston Center for Photography presents Focusing Spot: A Creative Space for Young Photographers – Self Portraiture, a workshop for teens ages 12-17, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday, February 6, 2016.

No more selfies! This class will look at the history of self-portraits to inspire students to find ways to present themselves without holding their camera at arm’s length. We will also explore ways of representing oneself through objects, reflection and abstraction.

What students need to bring:
Digital SLR camera
Memory card
Portable storage device

Focusing Spot: A Creative Space for Young Photographers will introduce you to different photographic techniques such as lighting, editing and processing, alternative processes, color management and printing. As you move through the courses, each day you will learn new and different techniques.
