Experimental Techniques: Intermediate
Duration: 2 months | Start date: October 1
How do I sign up?
This course is part of the first block of the Diploma in Experimental Photography, a creative journey designed to help you develop your style and take your images to the next level. Here, we explore unconventional processes, creative resources, and techniques that will open up a world of possibilities. The most rewarding part is experiencing it as part of the full Diploma, connecting lessons learned, building experiences, and growing step by step. However, if you only want to focus on this module right now, you can also enroll separately for €125.
To what extent can you reinvent photography with your own hands?
In this intermediate course, we will continue the journey started in the beginner course by exploring new techniques such as anthotype and experimental printing techniques. Additionally, we will deepen our understanding of techniques introduced in the previous course, such as chemigrams or solargraphy. We will also introduce new creative possibilities with sessions on photographic intervention and dedicate a session to working with Polaroid. The course is designed as a constructive progression where students can advance week by week using pre-recorded materials we will provide (workshops and conferences). Students will never feel alone as they will have access to artists to clarify technical doubts and our chat support to guide them through their learning process.
