This is a unique opportunity for photographers who are interested in creating a new project or developing a current series under the guidance of world class educators and artists.

Your mentors will guide the development of your work through individually tailored research and exercises to help you develop your own voice and style.

This will provide you with the structure and understanding required to create a strong and considered photographic project. If you don’t have a project idea ready, we’ll develop one together.

Your guest speakers and reviewers will inspire and challenge you to think differently, and provide expert industry advice and feedback on your work.

You are free to choose between documentary, multimedia or conceptual approaches to your projects.

The program will conclude with a project review and personalised feedback from Carly Earl, Photo Editor - The Guardian and your mentors.

Completed projects will have the opportunity to be showcased at the Contact Sheet bookstore and our online platforms.
