Introduction

The course you will be attending is with an environmental and media company who focus on bringing attention to environmental issues specific to Africa, always looking for unique and authentic perspectives in their work. They work with many different clients, ranging from broadcasters, corporations, non-governmental organizations, print media and online news outlets. Their work is not restricted to land-based work, and you can also get wet with their underwater photography component!

Professionalise your career aspirations and learn how to make money from photography, whilst experiencing incredible photographic platforms in Africa. This course has evolved over the past 6 years to provide you with exactly what you need to break into the competitive world of photography. During this month, you will accompany our photographers throughout the Garden Route and receive expert guidance on how to produce artistic and quality photographs on wildlife and travel. On occasion you may also have the opportunity to participate in professional shoots for clients, producing marketing material for advertising and social media campaigns, enabling you to gain professional experience working with paying clients.

We have also included tutorials and practical training on setting up your own business; specifically how to ensure you can make enough money to startup and maintain your business; how to write a basic business plan and most importantly how to market yourself and build your income streams. Practical training is key and so the trainers dont just talk at you. They offer you practical experience and guide you, step by step through the process. They have a busy alumni program that will assist you to open the necessary profiles in the media industry to get you off to a flying start. This training, coupled with the practical experience of shooting within various wildlife and travel platforms, will enhance your career prospects. Some benefit from credits within their schools or colleges, where applicable.
