Smartphones are not just our daily companions but a pocket-sized artistic tool. As a part of ICP's participation in Lower East Side History Month, we are offering a pay-what-you-wish, in-person hands-on workshop co-taught by ICP faculty Hannah La Follette Ryan and Roy Baizan. Students will learn to use their camera phones to take artful and creative candids and portraits. Topics covered: how to use lighting, framing, composition, and in-camera editing features. The size and accessibility of phone cameras make them a natural fit for documentary photography. After learning some of these iPhone tips and tricks, students will go on an LES local business photo scavenger hunt and photowalk to explore and document this historic and diverse neighborhood.
