Creative SciComm Photography
Workshop on creative photography for science communication with minimal tools (your phone is enough!). No prior knowledge required. Limited space, please RSVP asap.
Time & Location
15 jun 2022, 19:00 – 21:00
Groningen, Oude Kijk in Het Jatstraat 58, 9712 EL Groningen, Netherlands
About the event
We will explore the basics of photography (composition, exposure, focus, etc.) with minimal tools (e.g. your phone) and with no background knowledge in photography required. This can be helpful for scientific content in some disciplines or simply for accompanying material in popular science articles, outreach activities, etc.
We will meet around 7pm (location TBA) and discuss the “theory” aspects of what makes a good/creative/interesting photo, and we can already start shooting some photos inside - of each other, of the venue, random objects, etc. Then we will go outside and take pictures in the city or in a park. Golden hour is around 9pm (the sun sets only at 10pm in mid June), so the lighting around that time will make for the best pictures.
We will have around 15-20 people max (so RSVP asap), and for the outside activities you will be grouped up into teams of three.
