Object photography techniques, hardware and software practices for 3D imaging
Jonathon Vines is the Senior Imaging Technician (commercial division) at the world renowned British Library. 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 who upload a successfully completed model to Sketchfab will earn 1.0 ECTS credit.
Develop your 30-60 second introduction, including your personal details, area of interest, and relevant experiences.
An Elevator Pitch is a brief (30 seconds!) way of introducing yourself, getting across a key point or two, and making a connection with someone. If you happen to bump into someone you’ve been eager to meet in an elevator, how would you introduce yourself, get your point across, and ask to stay connected—all before that person gets off the elevator! Elevator Pitches are handy to have in mind any time you’re at an event where you might meet prospective job or networking connections. You’ll discover the best practices for anticipating your audience, preparing your story, and practicing your delivery. *Important: participating in the "Professional Presentations" workshop with other of my workshops may earn you up to 1,0 ECTS.

Write Your Story!
Everyone has a story they wish to write - it could be a true story, something that happened to you or to someone you know. Or perhaps you've read something in the news that won't let you go. Maybe it's a story of futuristic world or a mythical past. It might be impossible to tell your story in just a few pages - perhaps your story has the scope of novel. Your story might take shape as a song or a poem, or a series thereof. Or a graphic novel, or a script for a screenplay … If you don't know what your story is, but would like to find out - or you'd just like to try your hand at writing (and there are, believe me, thousands of stories just waiting to be written!) - come along for the adventure. You can be certain your story will reveal itself to you during this one-day workshop. We'll get started with writing exercises and discussion to loosen up. You'll complete your story at home and share it will the group at a follow-up open-mic session.
Write Your Story!
If you have taken part in a previous workshop and would like to deepen that experience or simply write something new, welcome back! We'll get started, as always, with writing exercises to loosen up. We'll experiment with new perspectives, create new characters and settings, and see what happens when it all comes together. You'll find the inspiration during this one-day workshop for a new piece of writing, whether it be a story, a poem or the start of a film script … You'll complete your work at home and share it will the group at a follow-up open-mic session. I look forward to seeing you again!
Advanced techniques in photographic genres and post-production
Jonathon Vines is the Senior Imaging Technician (commercial division) at the world renowned British Library. 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.
The course with practical units is aimed at those students who want to use the remaining time to - learn how to organize their learning materials, - take stock of their own learning status and existing apps, - and create a learning plan and -.get tips & tricks for successful exam preparation. Please note: This online course is interdisciplinary!
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 and the IMD’s World Competitiveness Yearbook. A short assignment pertaining to the lecture topic is to be delivered shortly after the lecture ends in order to receive the ECTS.

The aim is to understand the context in which photographs are made, how they are used to illustrate stories and how to present the work; with an introduction to self-publishing, editing images to print, the design and creation of a photobook, exhibition series, or presentation, of a personal piece of work. Participation with no assessment = 0.5 ECTS. Delivery of a final presentation = 1 ECTS Construction of a final publication based on a refined project, or new body of work, plus a written assessment of working practice = 2.5 ECTS
