Subject: LIGHTS and CAMERA

A workshop was conducted on the topic “Capturing the emotions in IMAGE” by the faculties of Animaster College of Animation and Design along with the students of BCU Sem 6 on the 25th of January 2020 (Saturday).

The main objective was to learn and caption real emotions on the street. The faculties guided the student to not direct the subjects. Doing so can prevent them from getting their real emotions on camera, as they will be too focused on holding a pose that may or may not come naturally to them. The students were also told to be mindful of when attempting to capture authentic emotions in the photos as it is to be on the lookout for possible instances wherein they will be able to catch the subjects in their most unguarded form.

The faculties mentored the students by telling them to focus on the details. “The devil is in the details”—or so they say. In photography, this could not be truer. Focusing on the right details can actually help convey emotions in the photos.

An example in the attached images below they have tried to capture the emotion of a cat after they tossed hi, then after it been transferred to an unknown person, and also after it’s been showcased with unknown actions and different elements.

Similarly, they tried to capture the emotions of a frustrated police officer who was tired of explaining an old man w.r.t the address.

They also captured the emotions of electricians who were in a hurry of fixing a pole with damaged transformers. And that followed with Vegetable Vendor, Lady waiting for the bus, satisfied smile, lonely dog, and so on.

The students were really happy with the workshop as they could get a practical scenario about the subject they are studying. They say they want events as such to happen on a regular basis and they would love to participate.

Thus a wonderful workshop comes to an end with lots of learning experience for the students and these lovely pictures are the outcome.
