Aim
The aim is to broaden theoretical and practical knowledge of photography and as an introduction to the world of audiovisual language in the representation of space and architecture, based on an approach to the work of RCR Arquitectes and the photography of Hisao Suzuki. The exercises combine reflection on the work process and its implementation from a conscious approach to space and everything that surrounds us, contributing to the awakening of the senses. The audiovisual language is developed following the different phases of the production process in which each participant, individually or in groups, will carry out a creative video exercise.
