Many people can take decent photographs. Few photographers understand how to edit, sequence and present their work. These skills will enable you to be better visual storytellers and will help you distinguish yourself from other photographers.
In this intensive workshop you will learn how to edit and sequence photo essays and long-term projects. We will cover story structure, photo editing for presentation in magazines, books, exhibitions or on the web. The workshop will also focus on how to market your stories and yourself.
The workshop is led by James Estrin, the co-editor of the New York Times Lens blog, and features Elizabeth Krist, formerly of National Geographic magazine and Olivier Laurent, editor of Time magazine's Lightbox.
