Lighting and the Dramatic Portrait- Michael Grecco- YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS!
Tuesday October 27, 2009, 7:00pm

For over a quarter century, portrait photographer Michael Grecco has been taking images and making impressions. From advertising to editorial, Grecco's dynamic work is continually raising the photographic bar.

Michael has created a critically acclaimed book titled “The Art of Portrait Photography”. He is currently working on his “found beach people” series in Miami and Los Angeles for his newest publication. Michael Grecco works with an unrivaled technical ability and a rare sensitivity. Michael couples this technical savvy with a personally engaging style that draws out the people and the potential. He is a photographer’s photographer, always ready with hard-earned advice and willing praise for others. The image he has created for himself is authentic, composed and always striking

Using visual examples from his dramatic and conceptual portraits, Michael will explain the elements of creative imagery, show how he developed his style, and tell you how you can develop yours. He will also answer questions about the business of photography. In addition, Michael will explore the principles revealed in “Lighting and the Dramatic Portrait”, and his third book, using illustrations from the books and personal projects. There will be an opportunity to personally greet the author, and have his book signed, afterwards.

Today we live in a society that is bombarded by visual imagery. Unfortunately, we receive very little education in the structure, form or content of images. This situation may leave us feeling ineffective in our ability to produce images or to decipher their more subtle messages. Visual Literacy is a first step for students interested in Photography , architecture, interior design, graphic design, art and art education, textile design, and journalism and mass communications to challenge this situation and to begin a serious exploration of the visual world, a world that is as complex and organized as the verbal world.
Visual literacy is the ability to interpret, negotiate, and make meaning from information presented in the form of an image. Visual literacy is based on the idea that pictures can be “read” and that meaning can be communicated through a process of reading.
Visual Literacy investigates the ways we as a society communicate our beliefs and values through the artifacts we make. It enables people to explore the formal qualities of the visual world and to develop new sensitivities toward their visual environment. It brings Photographers an expanded awareness of their surroundings and an understanding of the potential for visual images and constructed artifacts to express their own ideas and observations about the world.
Join us for an evening of understanding an Image with Paula Tognarelli is the Executive Director and Curator of the Griffin Museum of Photography.
This is an open discussion , please bring your ideas to the meeting.

For those wishing to push themselves beyond just taking a photograph and the approach of understanding the art of photography. This workshop challenges participants to make images that have more in common with painting than with photojournalism. The two day's major themes are color and light, and how they can transform the most mundane as well as the grandest of subjects. Banafsheh shares her passion for the creative possibilities of color and her techniques for maximizing its effect. Filters, film choice, exposure, color temperature, composition, and fine art are some of the topics we explore.

The workshop begins with reviewing past work and sharing our photographic, artistic, and career goals. . Most of our time in the field is spent together, so that each participant can receive hands-on help with planning and making photographs on location. Expect the days to be long, intense, exhilarating, and rewarding as we learn to see the fall in a new, more intensely personal way.
