Workshop: Mastering Lighting as Narrative with Darnell Wilburn

Workshop Description –

We’ve reached a turning point where a photographer is expected to understand the mechanics of video as well as photography. The lines between the still photographer and videographer are blurred. While you can make a respectable living shooting mainly – or only – photography, the market is opening wider and wider for artists who can do both. This 4-week workshop consists of 2 in person, and 2 virtual classes that will take you from concept to creation to critique of a personal video project.

Instructor’s Bio – Darnell Wilburn is a documentary and editorial photographer, curator and educator based in Atlanta, Georgia. Originally from Cincinnati, he has worked with with clients such as Cincinnati Magazine and Black Enterprise. Darnell has a Master of Fine Arts in Photography from Savannah College of Art and Design, and since moving to Atlanta has worked with clients such as Essence, Marie Claire Australia, and GoDaddy.com.  Darnell worked as a faculty member at the Art Institute in Atlanta, Georgia and was a co-founder of the Garcia | Wilburn Fine Art Gallery in Buckhead, Atlanta. The Garcia | Wilburn partnership continues through the collaboration and production of the Modern Art and Culture Podcast.

Darnell Wilburn is passionate about social justice work and has volunteered for a number of years with “Kate’s Club” an Atlanta-based organization providing support for children grieving the loss of loved ones. His personal documentary interests have touched on his own experience with the project titled The Sociology of the Black Woman, and a long-term project about immigration during the height of the political immigration suppression of 2016.
