About the Workshop:
In this workshop, we went through concepts of videography and storytelling. Participants learnt how to film and develop an audiovisual piece in groups. We raised questions about what is invisible and focused on the process more than on the final result. Támara Aalto went through videography concepts of framing, movement, angles, and light, how to use them and what we want to tell with those. We gathered in groups, filmed, and edited together to create a video.
