The aim of this one day intensive studio workshop is to explore ideas about photobooks and create the draft of a handmade photobook dummy. We will be focusing on the following aspects of book making: editing, sequencing, designing, bookmaking.

Participants are required to send by email about 20-30 pictures as well as text describing their project. Before the workshop the project will be discussed to find the best design solution for developing it later. The aim is that each participant will finish the workshop with a physical draft dummy which could be developed further. We will also cover some technical aspects of making books with some practical exercises. This is an all- analogue workshop so participants are required to bring a set of images in 3 different sizes which will be used for editing as well as developing a dummy. Participants will be asked to bring their own tools.
