$1,500 - 4 day course – Tuesday through Friday. Classes are 9a – 5p at Cone Editions Studio in East Topsham, VT – limited to a maximum of 8 and a minimum of 4. Workshop takes place 9am - 5pm each day at Cone Editions Press. Each attendee has their own computer workstation with a connected Piezography printer. Each workstation is networked to an EPSON 4000, EPSON 4800, and EPSON 7600. There are 4 large format EPSON printers with the four hues of PiezoTone inks and a Piezography Neutral K7 large format printer. There are several scanners for attendee use, but most attendees prefer to contract the studio prior to their attendence to have Cone Editions scan their originals on the Hell 3400 drum scanner (at additional costs). There are many different papers to choose to print from Hahnemuhle, Bradford Papers, Legion Papers and others.

Overview
Despite the many changes brought about by the digital revolution, the ability to create a narrative through imagery remains central to the art of photography. And whether you are approaching prospective galleries, clients, entering a juried competition or simply seeking feedback from peers, the print portfolio serves as a powerful introduction of your work.

This four-day workshop led by photographer and printmaker Amadou Diallo is devoted to the production of a fine art portfolio that expresses your personal photographic vision. Learn how aesthetic concept, image selection and choice of paper, can define the narrative of the portfolio. Film scanning and image editing in Photoshop will revolve around implementation of a sound color-managed workflow. Printmaking options, including the use of monochromatic or color ink sets, RIPs, printer linearization and profiling tools will be explored. Documentation of editions, preparation of an artist statement and effective use of promotional materials to reinforce the portfolio will be discussed. You will leave the workshop with the ability to successfully present your vision to the world.

Objective
Learn how to make use of digital capture, edit and print technologies to create a print portfolio that communicates your photographic vision.

Prerequisites
This workshop is designed for photographers with a pre-existing body of work. Participants must bring a selection of negatives, slides or digital files from which to select 10-15 images for the final portfolio. Participants must be comfortable using Mac OS X and have basic Photoshop knowledge of levels and curves adjustments.
