TechSoups Storymakers 4: Using Photos to Tell Your Organization's Story

 

TechSoup is running an incredible campaign for nonprofit storytellers called Storymakers 2016. It's an amazing space that is encouraging nonprofits to jump into the deep end of storytelling. This week, I am joining the campaign! I'll be teaching a free webinar called, "Capture Your Audience with Visual Storytelling". I hope that I will get to connect with you during the call! Sign up here!

 

This is the last webinar of TechSoup's Storymakers 2016 series on Thursday, May 5 at 11 a.m. Pacific (2 p.m. Eastern, 1 p.m. Central, 12 p.m. Mountain) to hear tips on taking great photos to help tell your organization's story!

 

Where do you begin when picking up a camera, collecting images from supporters and staff, or curating those images into a compelling narrative to support your organization's work? In this hour-long webinar, you'll learn about:

  • Considering a photo story concept
  • Composing photos to get the best shots for your story
  • Selecting the right photos
  • Get tips on editing photos and which tools to use
  • Adding captions or text to photos
