Advanced Communicators Day
Making Union Action Look Sexy
In this workshop, Abdul Malik will go over the ins and outs of covering action, events, pickets, moving on the fly, and how best to use your equipment over a number of difficult shooting scenarios. Much of this will be framed around how to create powerful, dynamic images that bolster your action from a communications perspective while being extraordinary morale boosters for your membership. This workshop will include, the best setting for a number of environments, reading light, getting powerful candids, staging photographs to make them look natural and environmental and worksite portraiture. Bring a camera if you have one, or a smartphone if you don’t!
