BLACK n WHITE Photography Course (26th AUG 2023) or your preferred date

Workshop Fees-

• S$170 for ex-FULL course students
• S$200 for newly sign-up participants

I first taught this module in 1999 and it's an 18 hours 4 days FULL course that includes B&W film handling, shooting, Chemistry Darkroom film processing/developing/printing.

But in Today's Digital age, B&W photography is as popular as ever, and the good news is that it’s never been easier to create stunning B&W images. Although the process of digital B&W photography is different from film, what makes a good image remains the same.

To create a B&W image, many photographers simply click the desaturate button and leave it at that, convincing themselves they now have a piece of fine art shot. However, when we start to look at the process of creating black and white images we soon realize that it takes a lot more than that and we have a lot more to think about than just converting to grayscale and adding a nice pretty Ikea frame.

We need to keep our eyes peeled for elements like tonal contrast, strong lines, patterns, shapes, and texture. We need to learn to see in grayscale... in other words; Selective Visualisation.
