Black Sea expedition I, Georgia 2011

2013 workshops

Booking deadline: The latest, 2-4 weeks before

the beginning of each workshop.

For Balkan expedition the latest, 2 months

before the starting date of the workshop.

The “On the Road” workshops are designed for amateurs and

professionals alike and there is no portfolio requirement in advance.

Nikos Economopoulos prefers to have a portfolio review with each one of the participants upon the first meeting, as a way of introduction. This way, and also by discussing with you, he can have a better understanding of your interests and plan the workshop accordingly, so that you can have the maximum benefit.

So in this way, other than the city itself and the local lives of the

people, the focus is geared to whatever interests you.

The methodology is based on editing. During the day, the participants are expected to explore the city and shoot what interests them, either on their own or in pairs or small groups. Each one may choose locations freely according to what they are interested in and feel comfortable with.

They all meet up early in the evening in order to go through the

day's work and do the editing.

In the first meetings, Nikos Economopoulos prefers to see the full material that you shoot and select from that. After a while, he will ask you to do the first editing yourself and proceed to select from your own selection and discuss it. There is a practical orientation and in this way, the participants also benefit from one another.

The equipment that you would need is a digital camera and a laptop.

Accommodation is up to each participant individually.

We may only suggest the names of hotels so that you also get a sense of the area where you may search yourself for a hotel that suits your needs, or give you the address of the ones where the workshops are going to be held, but do not make particular deals with them, as we cannot undertake the traveling aspect of the workshop. So if you do not find availability there or if the hotels that we have selected for Mr. Economopoulos do not match your standards or suit your needs, you may search for an alternative, preferably nearby, for the purpose of convenience.

Whatever changes may occur on the workshops schedule would be due to reasons beyond our control and would not in any way affect confirmed participants without their prior agreement.

Nikos Economopoulos is not responsible for reimbursement of travel expenses in case a workshop is cancelled in case of an emergency. We recommend that you buy refundable air tickets and/or travel insurance.
