Portfolio Building Workshop

$135.00

This is the Portfolio Build Class for mid-level photographers. This is not a class for beginners, or for the more experienced photographers. This is a class for photographers working on their portfolio to make it more appealing to art directors, editors, and designers.

We focus on the creative aspects of understanding the portfolio process and identifying the properties of a good portfolio. There is a private FB group specifically for this group to have private and confidential discussions on images and direction.

IMPORTANT: This is an intensive workshop with deliverables each week.
You will get out of it what you put into it.

If you are not sure you are ready for this class, please contact me at don.giannatti@gmail.com and include a link to your current website. I will get back to you immediately.

Description

Class One: Review of the current portfolio
We will discuss all of the student’s current portfolio. I will have either an art director or another photographer on with me for this meeting. They will be working pros in commercial photography or graphic design. They will be done in advance and presented for discussion in class one. All critiques will be recorded and archived for your review at any time.

Class Two: The Gaps.
Where do you want to focus your portfolio, and what work do you need to create to get it there?

Class Three: Fauxtolio or Tear Sheets 
Fauxtolio tears (6) and planning for the shooting to follow.
The group will be able to help you with ideas on styling/locations etc…

Class Four: Shot List
Presentation of your shot list. Explain the gaps you see, and how you will be filling them.

Shoot Break.
4 Full Weeks to shoot the gap shots, or start a new portfolio section or build into an existing one. Throughout the shoot break, I will be looking in to see your progress and to help guide you if you get into a challenging situation or two.

WE REGROUP FOR A SESSION OF ONE-ON-ONE REVIEW OF YOUR WORK.

THEN WE HAVE A GROUP WEBINAR TO INTRODUCE YOUR WORK TO YOUR FELLOW WORKSHOP ATTENDEES.
This will be the last meeting webinar.

WE STAY FOCUSED THROUGH THE FB GROUP.
