Mastercraftsman Diploma in Professional Photography and Digital Imaging

The two-year photography diploma program is a total immersion experience designed to equip students with the rational and practical skills to become working photography professionals. It uniquely provides education, instruction and exhaustive hands-on experience in the digital technology, creativity, aesthetics, business, history, and theory of still photography, as well as the use of the moving image from a photographer’s perspective. While photography has always been intrinsically tied to technology, the image-makers of today cannot afford to call themselves just photographers. They must also be digital imaging experts, and capable of working confidently with multimedia platforms. Shari Academy helps bring this to you with the most extensive course there is! This time around the course also includes a special component of Cinematography!

Cinematography, for the new digital age. Cinematographers have one of the most essential jobs in any film production: bringing a director’s vision to life.

When a movie concludes, long after the final credits roll, viewers are often left with a single shot or image in their head. In addition to the spoken lines and performances, many movies are made or broken on the merits of their cinematography and imaging. Students will work at an accelerated rate, with maximum commitment, as they develop new skills and create a body of work. The curriculum is designed to immerse prospective cinematographers in all aspects of the discipline. students will work at an accelerated rate, with maximum commitment, as they develop new skills and create a body of work.
