The Griffin Museum, in collaboration with Fran Forman, is excited to present this online workshop, which introduces a process for creating new imagery through a combination of photography, Photoshop, and AI programs.

If you're interested in creating imaginative, constructed images using both photographic sources and AI tools, this class is for you. We won't be aiming for realism, nor will we call these works photographs in the traditional sense. Instead, we'll explore image-making as a collaboration between your camera, your imagination, Photoshop, and AI platforms such as MidJourney

In this workshop, you will be guided through the conception, creation, and completion of your photobook (via a print-on-demand (POD) self-publishing platform.) You will also receive information on other options for publishing your book.

In preparing for this course, you will determine the subject of your photobook and identify some of the images you expect to include and possible text.

To begin, we will examine a book's structure and see examples of classic and contemporary photobooks. Through presentations, discussions, critiques, and assignments, you will work to refine your idea

In this workshop, we will go beyond the basics of the Adobe Lightroom Classic workflow. We will begin with a brief review of the Library and Develop Modules, along with key settings that impact performance and organization. From there, we will dive into problem-solving common challenges such as replacing or adding hard drives, moving files without losing links, and maximizing the use of Collections. We will also explore new tools for sorting and organizing, creating export presets, and more within the Library Module.

The Develop Module section will cover Lightroom Classic's newest features

Making the transition from screen to print can be challenging. Creating a successful print requires more than knowing which buttons to push, it requires understanding how technical choices shape the final image. After an introduction to basic color management and printer settings, students will explore how various controls affect both the outcome and aesthetic of the print.

Through a series of technical exercises, students will train their eye to see and evaluate color, as well as explore edge contrast, sharpness, and custom black-and-white printing. Students should be comfortable using

This course invites participants to fail up. Through readings, discussions, and experimental exercises, we will explore how to reframe
