Community Journalism at its very best!
Sacramento Press Workshop n SLR photography| Happy New Year! Thanks to everyone who helped make 2009 such a great year. We had a huge increase in contributors, good turnouts at our workshops and we've really enjoyed meeting many of you and hearing your stories. For the month of January, we plan on having a workshop on SLR photography. Anthony Bento, who gave an introduction to photography workshop, will be teaching this one. The SLR workshop is scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 13, from 6:30 - 8 p.m. Bento has a B.A. in film and digital media from UC Santa Cruz, where he photographed and reported on the 2004 presidential campaign and other political events. He has also worked as a product photographer in New York City and here in Sacramento as a freelance photojournalist for Sacramento News & Review, and as a community contributor for the Sacramento Press. There were many people who expressed interest in an advanced photography workshop, so we've created just that. Please bring your SLR camera, and your specific questions about the settings and tools. If you have no experience with SLR, we don't recommend you attend this particular workshop. If you have other ideas for photography workshops or other types of workshops, please email them to journalism@sacramentopress.com We will have the workshop at our office, which is located at 431 I St., Suite 107 in the Amtrak station. We are in the same building complex as Starbucks. If you are facing Starbucks, go around the building to the left and you'll see our Sac Press sign out front. We recommend you find parking on the street, bike or take light rail, as the Amtrak parking lot charges $1.50 per half hour and we cannot cover the cost of parking. If you take light rail, we will give you two passes when you get here - one to cover your trip here and one to cover your trip back. For this workshop, please RSVP by clicking the RSVP button below. If the button doesn't work, please email workshops@sacramentopress.com If you have any trouble finding the office, you can give us a call at 916-443-5403. Thanks, and we hope to see you there! |
