"From Dyckman to Madison Square Garden I created Opportunities for Myself. Now, I'm creating Opportunities for Others."
-Jon Lopez
Sideline photography is equal parts skill, business, and heart. Hours on the sideline provide opportunities to hone skills & cultivate relationships.
Unfortunately at nearly every event, I was the only photographer of color on the sidelines. So I've developed a program that will change this.
The Workshop is a six week program that places 8-36 budding photographers on professional/collegiate sidelines for games and practices as the real-time content provider.
TEAMS RECEIVE FULL MEDIA COVERAGE FROM
Two professional sports photographers
24 skilled photographers
If there's a practice, press conference or game, our students will be there to capture every image and craft every story. All image and video rights belong to the team(s) for unlimited usage in perpetuity.
STUDENTS RECEIVE WORLD-CLASS CURRICULUM ON
Storytelling through mixed media
Capturing moments on and off the field of play
Access to professional equipment
Proper metadata and captioning standards to manage the digital library for client use
The business and accounting of projects
The leading limitation to getting the next job is experience. This program removes this obstacle from the conversation at the highest levels possible.
