Today was the first day the kids had with the cameras. We showed them the basics, turn it on, press here to shoot and let them loose in their community. There is a lot of raw talent here and we are very excited to see what they come up with during the week.
Here are some selected shots by the kids from our first Photo Walkabout in Smokey Mountain.
After shooting we gathered the kids and brought them back to YFF for lecture and critiquing from Bobot Meru. Thanks Kuya Bobot for your time and wisdom.
"Buhay Ko sa Smokey Mountain" aims to teach 25 scholars from the Smokey Mountain Community how to document and share their lives via prose, photos, videos through personal blogs. The workshops will be taught by prominent Bloggers, Photographers, Writers and Directors. The Manila Jaycees, together with Young Focus Foundation, are working together to empower these kids with the tools and skills to tell their story.
Wonderful pics kids! Keep up the good work!
