This is my second year of running Summer kids photography workshop.
And I know with these classes kids get quite the great mix of all that.
Is the kids photography workshop a good fit for your child?
First of all, I don’t know a child who would be absolutely mad for giving him/her a phone and the permission to play with it.
Second of all, this workshop is going to show the kids new ways for using their creativity. You will be amazed how interesting their point of view is.
Like, back in April my older daughter (9 years old) entered her very short (and silly) video to Poppy Jasper International Film Festival. The video was played in front of an audience at the Gavilan College in Gilroy. It was really a great day for her! I have to mention that all the clips for the video were made on my iPhone and the entire video was put together on an iPad.
My daughter is absolutely fluent with iMovie (iPad or iPhone version). She doesn’t have much access to games and silly apps. However, if she mentions making a video or editing pictures I tend to say YES to the time in front of a mobile device.
This workshop is going to teach kids the basic knowledge about photography. All of that without the boring stuff necessary to master DSLR cameras.
I’ve seen kids snapping killer black and white images after going through this workshop. Something they were not even considering before.
