LEARN, DO, REVIEW: Photography Quickstart Guide
For people who have a camera and want to get started using it. Using the Learn, Do, Review method, the class will introduce some of the basics of photography and encourage students to get out and take their first photos. The class will focus more on the basics of getting started than the technical aspects of photography. Full Auto, Frame Your Shot, Take the Picture.

In my 20 years of teaching multimedia production, I have found that the Learn, Do, Review system is the best way to learn new skills. I am Brian Paris, and I’ve been training students all over the world to be better photographers, filmmakers and multimedia producers by using the simple method that I have perfected over the years. I’ve seen a lot of other classes that lecture about cameras and shooting techniques. It is good information, but the best learning doesn’t stop there. That is just the start. After that YOU have to get out and use the principles, and then come back and evaluate your progress. In your LEARN, DO, REVIEW courses, that is precisely what we will be doing. So, get ready, because you won’t be able to just sit back for this one. You will be getting out and doing!

Walking Workshops

I run hands on workshops that provide practical experience with the skills needed for today’s multimedia reporting. The best way to learn is to get out and do it. Before meeting, you will be given a short handout that gives some basic information to get you up and running on the subject. The workshops start with a short lesson with training and goals for the day. Then we go out to put the lesson into action. You’ll be using the skills you learned in the lesson to produce your own work. I will be out with you to answer questions and to give feedback and suggestions. The last part of the workshop is left open for review, questions and comments.
