What this class is

• A practical 30-day prompt-led challenge focused on composition, light, and storytelling rather than technical jargon.
• Suitable for beginners through to experienced shooters who want structure, accountability, and fresh ideas.
• Ideal if you're doing a 365 project, building a social media library, or reigniting your creative spark.

What you will learn

By the end of the challenge, students will:

• See everyday scenes differently by using creative perspectives like worm's eye view and bird's eye view.
• Understand how to work with light, shadows, reflections, silhouettes, and lens flare to create more atmospheric images.
• Improve composition using leading lines, negative space, frame-within-a-frame, depth layers, circles, and symmetry.
• Capture motion with techniques such as freezing action, motion blur, and panning for dynamic duathlon or street images.
• Develop a consistent visual style using simple colour choices, black-and-white edits, and basic DaVinci Resolve tweaks.
• Build a small, curated portfolio from the best images created during the 30 days.
