School Holidays: National Zoo Safari Scrapbooks
What will we be doing?
For the budding wildlife photographer! Guided by expert tutors, kids will explore during this workshop how to capture daily life at the National Zoo and Aquarium. Day One is a field trip to the zoo, with participants trying out different approaches to creating great images of different animals. Day Two is based at PhotoAccess, where the kids will be introduced to Adobe Creative software, review and edit their images from the zoo and create their own printed safari scrapbook to take home. Cost includes entry to the Zoo.
Participants are welcome to use either a provided point and shoot camera or bring their own DSLR camera. Laptops loaded with the appropriate Adobe software are provided.
Suitable for Kids 10-15 years old.
Parents and siblings (below 10) are welcome to attend the day at the Zoo, however they will be required to pay to enter separately and siblings MUST be supervised by a parent at all times.
