Are you interested in photography as a hobby or as a career for the future? If you are then this club is for you! Mattson Creations
Our Photography Club is unique. With little or no experience of photography, no other club will give you the knowledge, skill and exposure to set-up and manage a successful (photography) business in the future.
What makes our PHOTO CLUB unique?
Students of the Photo Club will be introduced to the tools and helped to develop skills necessary for researching, composing, and capturing Digital Photographic Projects.
Students will be encouraged to be creative, and also taught to think of each project as a concise statement of artistic, documentary, and/or journalistic intent.
Students will also explore the creative potential of unconventional cameras, and get familiar with the incredible high-definition video capabilities of various Camera modes, as they are immersed in a unique curriculum of visual storytelling techniques, including concept, direction, editing, lighting, and sound design, culminating in a very exciting photography project.
Students expand their repertoire of techniques with light and shadow as they work with professional lighting and grip hardware, as well as inexpensive and unconventional practical sources of light and shadow.
Students also get internationally recognized certificates from Mattson Creations Photo Academy upon their completion of school, and a chance to meet and work with some of the industry's greatest and finest photographic artistes.
