SUMMARY:Flat Lay Photography
DESCRIPTION:Flat Lay Photography – 14th September\nFlat Lay is simply an image with a bird’s eye view of carefully arranged objects (or people!) Your canvas can be as small or as large as you like and works really well for a variety of genres such as documentary\, commercial\, fashion\, and food. \nThere will be several different stations for you to practice capturing that crisp image and play with affordable/household lighting options. \nWe’d love you to have a go at doing your own setup\, so please bring along a selection of items and all the equipment you will need (camera\, tripod\, lighting if you have it\, etc). We will be there to help\, so if you need anything in particular\, please let us know in advance via comms@wps.org.nzFind some inspiration here: https://blog.depositphotos.com/mastering-the-art-of-flat-lay-photography-and-design.html

SUMMARY:Finding Vivian Maier - Movie Night
DESCRIPTION:Finding Vivian Maier is a 2013 American documentary film about the photographer Vivian Maier\, who working most of her life as a nanny and housekeeper\, took over 100\,000 photographs secretly and hid them in lockers until they were discovered decades later. She is now considered one of the greatest 20th century American photographers. \nThe film documents how Maloof\, the film’s co- director\, discovered her work in a box of photo negatives at a 2007 Chicago auction\, then scanned the images and put them on the Internet\, which inspired a Kickstarter campaign to produce a film of her work. \nUpon release\, the film received critical acclaim and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature at the 87th Academy Awards. \nThursday 12th October\, Doors Open 7pm\, Tararua Tramping Club

SUMMARY:Clive Pigott - Alternative Printing Processes
DESCRIPTION:Clive Pigott – Alternative Printing Processes. Thursday 11th April\, Tararua Tramping Club\, 7pm \nAbout Clive:\nI’ve been making photographs since I was 12. I’m now 58. \nI am not a naturally talented photographer. My eye didn’t really improve until I was in my 40’s and only after I had adopted digital. Until then successful images were hit and miss. \nI’d say generally my images are simple but deliberate. I aim to have enough in them for the viewer to take a longer look (but then don’t we all want that?). \nI’d probably say I’ve been on a journey with photography over the years. It has definitely\, been a journey of great fun and reward\, as I have got better at converting my images into prints using alternative processes: Cyanotype (with/without botanical toning)\, 4-colour Gum bichromate\, and Anthotype. \nIn my talk I’ll tell you about these processes and why I like them\, I’ll show you some of the successes and failures (and hence why it is still a journey)\, and I’ll give you some tips for getting started.

SUMMARY:Amber-Jayne Bain: My Journey Into Commercial Photography
DESCRIPTION:Amber-Jayne Bain is a photographer with over 20 years experience operating commercially in Te-Whanganui-a-Tara. \n\nA lengthy hiatus in her career as a photographer when she had children\, was a deliberate choice\, but her return to the industry over the last 5 years has seen a return to strength as a professional – a progression away from direct-to-client work\, and more commonly she works now with creatives to realise a diverse array of briefs. \n\nHer work encompasses editorial portraiture and food\, commercial and lifestyle photography\, and advertising for large and small brands. A new direction into photographic fine art has her currently studying at Massey University to complete a Masters degree\, while continuing to run her commercial photography business\, and serve on the executive board of the AIPA. \n\nYou can check out more of her work at https://ajbain.com/\n\nThursday 9th May\, Tararua Tramping Club – 4 Moncrieff St\, Mt VicDoors open from 7pm\, free entry.

SUMMARY:Film Night - Jos
DESCRIPTION:The Forgotten Photographer Who Saved A Town\nFor nearly 100 years the name Jos Divis was missing from histories of New Zealand photography. Now a wrong is being righted. \nSome call him the ‘inventor of the selfie’. A street photographer ahead of his time\, he pioneered techniques to capture images of ordinary people and their working lives in a way no-one else could. Imprisoned for his beliefs\, he lived his last years alone in the ghost town he helped bring to life\, his family believing him dead. \nJOS is a journey of discovery following a historian\, a photographer and a museum curator all working to give Jos Divis the recognition he deserves. \nDoors open from 7pm\, film will begin at 7.30pm\nSnacks and beverages will be provided\nAll welcome \n  \n
