Object photography techniques, hardware and software practices for 3D imaging

This hands-on practical workshop is aimed at students who wish to explore practical photography and software techniques for successful 3D model-making. Participants will create online 3D models using cameras (or cell-phone cameras) for object photography and then create online 3D models using Metashape software, with resulting models being uploaded to the popular international Sketchfab platform. The workshop will benefit students with an interest in photography and 3D photogrammetry, with applications ranging from game design, archaeology and cultural heritage to e-commerce, product design and engineering. Students will also develop critical thinking skills, spatial-cognitive awarenesses and problem solving techniques. All of which are eminently transferrable to other fields of academia and the workplace.

Advanced techniques in photographic genres and post-processing

A hands-on photography workshop learning the technical skills to produce work in genres such as portraiture, documentary/street, fashion, close-up/macro, landscape, architecture, studio and nature photography. We will discuss the techniques, equipment and skills necessary to create work across a wide range of styles. Alongside this practical work we will explore advanced genre-specific techniques in Photoshop such as Layers & Masking, Generative-AI, Colour Theory and Framing/Composition to create images in the selected genres. Students will select genres and produce work within their chosen areas for presentation in the workshop. For students without access to a camera and laptop we will explore ways to optimise phone photography. Students will without thinking, develop critical thinking skills and techniques that will enhance their problem solving skills and cognitive awarenesses.

Linking attitudes and values to sustainable behaviour

Why do some people behave in a more sustainable manner than others? Are wealth levels or infrastructure availability, e.g. good bicycle paths, always the root cause? Or are there some deeper underlying attitudes and values concerning sustainable behaviour that lie at the base and may be subconsciously directing our biases towards the topic of sustainability. This short lecture seeks to address these questions by exploring several potential origins of sustainable behaviour. It is part of an ongoing study that analyses how shifts in attitudes and values shape our sustainable behaviour and perception by correlating datasets from two large international organizations: The Environmental Performance Index andthe IMD’s World Competitiveness Yearbook.
