Win a place on Richard Gray’s Advanced iPhoneography Group Workshop – Worth £100

TheAppWhisperer.com is offering a place on the Advanced iPhoneography Group 5-week workshops run by Richard Gray, aka @rugfoot and Gray’s Anatomy columnist, starting May 13, 2013.

Here’s what you have to do. Simply tag what you consider to be your most “advanced” photo of the last year #AiGChallenge on Instagram. It can be advanced in the sense of using very technical skills, or advanced in the complexity of its meaning, or because you think it breaks new ground or is experimental.

You will also need to like theappwhisperer.com Facebook page by going to our homepage and scrolling down to the FB link – home page link

Make sure you can attend the course just in case you win: the workshops are run from 6:30pm weekly starting May 13 in central London for 5 weeks. See here for details and here for some examples of work from the first series of dates. The winner will be announced in this week’s Gray’s Anatomy. Good luck!”

The Advanced iPhoneography Group is a series of five 3-hour workshops led by Richard Gray @rugfoot on advanced photography with the iphone. The aims of the group are to inspire members to new photographic creations, to provide instruction on advanced techniques, to analyse and discuss concepts and issues in iphoneography and to form an off-line community of forward-looking mobile photographers in London. Members should have at least 1 year of experience shooting or around 1,000 published mobile photos and be familiar with the classic mobile photography apps. We aim to take members out of their comfort zones and inspire them to tackle new subjects and to experiment with new techniques. The workshops will be structured around the presentation and discussion of advanced techniques and issues and will involve challenging weekly assignments. Member numbers will be limited to 15 per series of workshops. The venue is in a great place for some creative shooting: near the hustle and bustle of Piccadilly Circus, some grand old buildings, Green Park nearby and the Church itself is a beautiful subject (we will be in a fully-equipped meeting room).

Venue: St James Church, 197 Piccadilly, London. Nearest tube is Piccadilly Circus.

Series 1: Monday evenings, 6:30-9:30, April 8, 15, 22, 29 and May 7 (Tues) SOLD OUT
Series 2: Monday evenings 6:30-9:30, May 13, 20, 28 (Tues), June 4 (Tues) and 10
Cost: £100 (see registration form for payment details).

Joanne Carter, creator of the world’s most popular mobile photography and art website— TheAppWhisperer.com— TheAppWhisperer platform has been a pivotal cyberspace for mobile artists of all abilities to learn about, to explore, to celebrate and to share mobile artworks. Joanne’s compassion, inclusivity, and humility are hallmarks in all that she does, and is particularly evident in the platform she has built. In her words, “We all have the potential to remove ourselves from the centre of any circle and to expand a sphere of compassion outward; to include everyone interested in mobile art, ensuring every artist is within reach”, she has said. Promotion of mobile artists and the art form as a primary medium in today’s art world, has become her life’s focus. She has presented lectures bolstering mobile artists and their art from as far away as the Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea to closer to her home in the UK at Focus on Imaging. Her experience as a jurist for mobile art competitions includes: Portugal, Canada, US, S Korea, UK and Italy. And her travels pioneering the breadth of mobile art includes key events in: Frankfurt, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Paris, Brazil, London. Pioneering the world’s first mobile art online gallery - TheAppWhispererPrintSales.com has extended her reach even further, shipping from London, UK to clients in the US, Europe and The Far East to a global group of collectors looking for exclusive art to hang in their homes and offices. The online gallery specialises in prints for discerning collectors of unique, previously unseen signed limited edition art. Her journey towards becoming The App Whisperer, includes (but is not limited to) working for a paparazzi photo agency for several years and as a deputy editor for a photo print magazine. Her own freelance photographic journalistic work is also widely acclaimed. She has been published extensively both within the UK and the US in national and international titles. These include The Times, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, Popular Photography & Imaging, dpreview, NikonPro, Which? and more recently with the BBC as a Contributor, Columnist at Vogue Italia and Contributing Editor at LensCulture. Her professional photography has also been widely exhibited throughout Europe, including Italy, Portugal and the UK. She is currently writing several books, all related to mobile art and is always open to requests for new commissions for either writing or photography projects or a combination of both.
