Thursday 16 January 2014
- 10:00-17:00The Societies have confirmed that
Damian 'The Big Dog' McGillicuddy will be presenting a full-day seminar at The
Societies' 2014 Convention in London.
Damian and his team will be training attendees by creating four uniquely themed
shoots utilising speedlight, studio, continuous and UV lights, splitting the
auditorium into four - with a set in each corner. Each shoot will be themed as
the best of British and we are aiming to utilise many exciting props as part of
the four sets that Team McGillicuddy are building for this interactive seminar.
Damian says "The intention of this full-day seminar is to show you that
professional photography is about creativity, control and technique, inspiring
the audience to seek the correct education to propel their photography forward
and to push themselves through the qualification process, not only for their own
personal development but as a marketing exercise and, if necessary, as a
business development tool."
Phil Jones, The Societies' CEO says, "This truly unique full-day seminar will be
a first at the Convention. This year Damian will only be doing this seminar and
taking a break from the Masterclasses and Superclasses. Plans are underway to
complete the day with a welcome party, where attendees will be able to network
with the speakers, exhibitors and other photographers."
The full-day seminar is priced at £80 for members of The Societies and £120 for
non-members (inc VAT).
This class must be pre booked to ensure your place.

Exhibition Area. The judging process is held in public so photographers can
watch the assessment process, this in itself is an invaluable learning process.
The winner will be announced at our prestigious Awards Night at the 2014
Convention.
