ワークショップ詳細:

WorkShopAsia will hold its next roving workshop in Siem Reap, Cambodia’s fastest growing town and the jumping off point for the spectacular temple ruins of Angkor Wat. With a maximum of 12 participants, the six-day, seven-night event will provide an opportunity to explore the cultural riches and social dynamism of this exotic corner of the world. Accommodation is provided at a stylish Khmer-style hotel in Siem Reap.
Award-winning documentary photographer and WorkShopAsia founder Jack Picone will lead the workshop along with co-founder Steven Coleman, British photojournalist and acclaimed photo book designer. Renowned photojournalist and author Nic Dunlop is guest tutor for the week. Nic will be there to critique and edit participants’ work one-on-one, and also take part in evening projections and discussions.
After arrival on Sunday July 1st, our workshop will begin late the same afternoon with an introductory get-together and a projection of selected work of tutors and participants. Like any working photojournalist, you will be given an assignment brief to interpret as you wish. (The brief will be announced prior to the workshop to give you time to research possible subjects before you arrive.)
The aim is to produce a documentary photo essay with a striking visual narrative, to be shown on the final evening. Tutors will hold individual and group sessions to supervise and edit the assignments, and dialogue intensively on topics such as photographic composition, portraiture, advanced camera techniques, how to research ideas and tell an original story, how to market a body of work, and how to hone your personal style.
With the world’s most breathtaking ancient ruins on its doorstep, Siem Reap and surrounding areas offer endless photographic possibilities. The town itself has gone from backwater to boomtown in the space of a decade, and traditional Khmer culture coexists with the emergence of a new young, hip generation of Cambodians. As well as the vast temple complex of Angkor Wat, nearby are floating villages with traditional stilted houses, the rural beauty of Tonle Sap Lake and the flooded forest of Komplong Phhluk. The workshop’s schedule will be demanding but highly rewarding. Instructors and field assistants will be on hand constantly to help navigate any areas of difficulty and discuss all your photographic concerns. Interpreters can also be arranged where necessary.
Cost: US$2,600. Includes all workshop sessions and seven nights accommodation in individual rooms with private bathrooms. Breakfast included.
Does not include travel costs to Siem Reap.
Application: The workshop is strictly limited to 12 participants. Subject to meeting workshop requirements, places will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
