The five-day workshop tackles all the areas requisite in the practice of photojournalism in today’s media landscape. Participants will go thru an extensive workshop in areas such as composition, best practices at work, industry trends and a hands-on field exercise to be delivered and facilitated by today’s top photojournalists from different publications and agencies.

Instructors and mentors include: Alex Baluyut, freelance photographer and mentor in Masterclass in Documentary Photography (MCDP) and Asian Center for Journalism (ACFJ); Jimmy Domingo, freelance photographer and teacher at the Ateneo de Manila and De La Salle University; Luis Liwanag, freelance photographer and mentor in Wide Open Workshop; Gil Nartea, Malacañang Photo Bureau, Raymond Panaligan, freelance photographer, Fernando Sepe, photo editor of abs-cbnNEWS.com; Gigie Cruz-Sy, freelance photographer, Joe Torres, Editor of UCA News and Rem Zamora, photojournalist from abs-cbnNEWS.com.

The workshop has produced alumni who have made a career in photojournalism. Several participants went on to study the Diploma in Photojournalism course at the Ateneo’s Asian Center for Journalism. Other past participants went on to work in newspapers or NGOs. Majority of the workshop participants went back to their jobs armed with a better understanding of how photography and photojournalism can contribute to their places of work.

This year’s workshop will be held from November 6 to 10 at the TREES Guesthouse, UP Los Baños, Laguna.
