Participants will follow an intensive hands-on program during this 9 days workshop in Cuba with the award winning photographer Fulvio Bugani. The main focus will be on reportage through street photography.
This intensive Leica Akademie Frankfurt in Cuba with Fulvio Bugani will help the students to learn in concrete how to observe and capture the world around them and realize a reportage through street photography and intimate portraits.
HAVANA & TRINIDAD
Starting point of our tour will be the charming Capital, an ancient city which is the most beautiful example of Spanish colonial architecture that is conserved in the Americas. We will enjoy the throbbing, warm lifestyle and the hospitality of its friendly people. And you will assuredly be charmed by the decadent retro atmosphere of this magical city.
Some days shooting pictures in the vibrant and colorful streets and different areas of the capital Havana and then our journey will bring us to the island’s interior to discover the true soul of Cuba. A small country town, like Trinidad, will let us breath the history and the past, where the rhythm of the life is much more relaxed than Havana.
Our two destinations are both part of the Unesco Heritage, and even though quite touristic still preserve the unique heritage of the island.
THE EXPERIENCE
