Image Explorations 2.0
So if you have been to IE 2012 you would of heard us
mention the phrase IE 2.0. If you haven't then keep reading as this whole post
is about to describe to you what it is all about.
IE (Image Explorations) has had an amazing run. For 13
years now IE has prided itself on cultivating a great atmosphere for both entry
level photographers and seasoned photographers alike. Our specialty is
giving all photographers the opportunity
to spend time with our instructors, learning from them both in class and out.
After all, being a photographer is more then just how to take a picture. It's
about life.
One of the things the team has felt coming into 2013, was
that IE needed a fresh look and experience for those who attend. But more so, we felt that IE needed to go another level in both experience
and learning. And that's why IE 2.0.
WHAT IS IE 2.0 ?
IE 2.0 is the perfect merger of the old and new. Giving
everyone the experience and opportunity to learn as usual at IE, yet with
flexibility and options.
There are 2 key components with IE 2.0.
- You can now take 2 instructors
during your 4.5 days at IE and not just one.
This 2 Instructor module is the first of its kind for any
PPA School and allows you the opportunity to maximize your learning with 2
instructors and at the same time gives you the flexibility to have control over
what you want to learn. You now have the ability to choose 2 different
disciplines to learn from giving you maximum learning for your dollar.
The 2 Instructor format gives you 13hrs of learning from
each of the 2 instructors you choose with a good break in the middle for
transition.
For those who loved the tried and true format of IE with
1 instructor thru the whole week, we have also included that option for you
too. There will be 3 instructors who will continue to teach the 4.5 day
format.
2. ADVANCED COURSES
We are so stoked that for IE2013 we are able to to launch our very first Intensive ADVANCED COURSE for IE 2.0 !
These courses have prerequisites and you must full fill
the prerequisites before acceptance into the program. Each Advanced course will
be unique in what the requirements are, some will need portfolio submissions,
others will need financial submissions. You must be an attendee of IE for 3
years as well.
These Advanced courses are truly meant to be advanced and
therefore the format of this course will be much different then any other
course you will take. It will be demanding and challenging and in essence run
like a military style boot camp where the skills you learn will be drilled into
you so you literally will be mastering it and not just learning about it.
So there you have it. IE 2.0 !
I sure hope this gives you all the inside scoop on what
IE 2.0 is and excites you just as much as it does us, the IE Team.
Leave us a comment and let us know what you think.
The NEW UPDATED 2013 Website will be online hopefully by
DECEMBER and online registration will commence January 1st, 2013.
As always first come first serve so please be prepared to
get your registration in early to secure the class you wanted.
There is more on IE 2.0 in the Next post.
