iPhone Photowalk: In and Around Westwood

About this course:

In this course, we go on four local field trips close to Westwood. Through our camera’s viewfinder, we seek inspiration, get outside of our comfort zone and hone our skills as an iPhone photographer. Each field trip begins with a lecture on how to shoot the venue, while creatively applying the principals of composition, color and lighting. Locations include Holmby Park, the UCLA Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Garden, the Getty Museum and Beverly Gardens Park. Four meetings are held at the Gayley Center where we show our photos on a large screen and receive a gentle, positive critique and suggestions on how to improve. Class discussions are in person. Field trips are offsite. Students must sign a waiver before participating.
