The Art of Single Frame Storytelling
StoryForward NYC
If a picture can say a thousand words, how do we choose which words we want it to say? Join us for a panel discussion featuring three storytellers that use the camera as their storytelling tool of choice.
Photography is all about perspective and point of view. It can be a powerful form of communication of ideas and themes. Each of our panelists have managed to carve a unique niche in the photography world by developing “their voice” in the images they shoot.
