DESCRIPTION

This course introduces students to photojournalism through the technical skills of using a camera to the composition of images as narrative possibilities. Special attention is paid to the evolution of photojournalism and documentary photography. Through lectures and visits to exhibitions, students gain insights into diverse visual languages and their dynamic interplay with other mediums, particularly text. Students engage in in-depth analyses of seminal readings on documentary photography, fostering a deeper understanding of the field. Through three hands-on mini projects and a final substantial one, students use photography as a powerful language, crafting personal visual narratives that capture the essence of new and unknown realities.
