Film-based cameras

From the 20 students that I train in Photography, less than half of the students have a camera of their own, Even if they do have a camera, its an MP3 player. About 5 students however have good quality cameras though they're' digital. The rest have a theoretical knowledge of the lesson, These students are a bit of a problem on my part because it is harder to train them. They almost always have zero output. On their side, some exerted efforts in borrowing a camera. I decided to allow them to use film-based old cameras, their output then become the scanned image. Here are examples of them.

Join me in my Journey

So I decided to use Photography as the main topic of this blog. Its a continuing voyage of learning and discovery. So join me in my travails as I travel a new path in being a teacher of Media Arts. I learn as I teach, but I retain the respect and trust of the students, much like a coach of a football team. I may not be as good as some of players of this field but I try to bring the best of out them. I so doing, I learn too and maybe become better as well.
