Students Workshop for Delhi Photo Festival - Conducted by Vidura Jang Bahadur
Core to the philosophy of the Delhi Photo Festival is a desire to encourage a better understanding and learning of photography and attempt to take photography to a larger audience. The workshop for underprivileged students of the Habitat Learning Center is one step in that direction. The emphasis of the workshop was on narrative and storytelling. Held over two weeks we worked closely with the students exposing them to work from around the world, encouraging them to go out and take photos, helping them develop both technical skills and their potential to tell stories.
