Registration
A prep-activity before the film screening in September on the account of the photobooks by film directors, photographers and artists who use image as a medium for storytelling. Each of them picks a distinct trait of a photo, interprets it on paper while creating stories through different perspectives.
Since a book is a silent medium devoid of voice and has a limited number of pages, it is more challenging to fit all images in a book compared to the making of film. Also, the images appearing in books are motionless which gives rise to the question of how these images can tell a story when being stacked in the book format, and how one’s impressions differ when reading the image versus watching the film.
For this activity, we have selected photobooks on the films of Wim Wenders and the other film directors, photographers, all the way to those artists who use photo as a medium to tell personal stories in book format.
Join us and other participants in a memorable talk while gaining more insights on where to start with the photograph book, exchanging thoughts and recommendations on how to enjoy the story from the photobook and feel the motion from the motionless through personal interpretation.
