The Zine Project April - December 2023
Registration now open!
To register for the zine project, email landscape2@rps.org
The zine (pronounced zeen) is an exciting and different way to get your photography project seen. Whilst never restricted to a single shape, size or format, photozines generally contain a small project; are printed quickly and cheaply and are the polar opposite of expensive, luxury self-publishing. Zines are an ideal vehicle for concluding those photographic projects that seem to linger on desperate for an ending.
An introductory zoom briefing by Dr Tim Daly will be held on 13 April 2023.
To get your ticket for the introductory briefing go to: https://billetto.co.uk/e/the-zines-project-introductory-briefing-tickets-807260
In Tim’s introductory briefing, you will get to see a wide range of inspiring photozines and learn how easy it is to put one together using Lightroom, Affinity Publisher or Photoshop. We will look at all the options available to you for home and commercial printing together with different papers, binding and costing it all out.
For those unable to attend the briefing a shorter recorded briefing will be made available afterwards on the Landscape Group website.
A follow up review and Q&A session with Tim will be held in autumn 2023 (date to be confirmed).
Tim is Senior Lecturer in Photography at Chester University. His specialist subjects are photography production and artist's publishing. Tim has had many photography books published, and has been teaching RPS workshops for a number of years.
