As visual people, we connect to strong photographs and compelling video – but in today’s landscape we are inundated with visuals constantly. It can be a challenge to cut through the noise. Multimedia projects allow you to work with your personal strengths to build a story that engages audiences in new and creative ways. 

This workshop walks you through various multimedia projects that have had an impact. We will speak with the creators and pick their brains on how they came up with these ideas and how they executed them. There is no wrong way to create a multimedia project – and our speakers are a testament to how powerful they can be!

The goal of this class is to push your mindset on the types of projects you can create and give you the tools to get there. This workshop is intended for those with a deep passion for photography and video, as well as a topic you want to build a project around. With the instructor, the guest speakers, and your fellow students – you will have a community to help you brainstorm and build fascinating projects!
