pho[to-be]rlin invites internationally renowned photo-journalists to held open lectures and lead a 3- to 4-days workshop in Berlin, where participants can benefit the master photographer’s valuable experience in the field and industry to produce their own reportage on an issue relating to Berlin.

The output of the workshops will contribute to an on-going contemporary documentary on the city and its stories, showing Berlin from the perspective of different photographers and protagonists.

THE WORKSHOPS
The Master Photographer will guide and supervise 10 photographers during a tight schedule that combines both theoretical lectures and shooting assignments, offering them day-by-day feedback through the editing and selection process, offering the chance to be shortlisted for the Final Summer Exhibition in Berlin.

London CEPIC week closed on an absolute high on Friday night with an amazing Annual Industry Party sponsored by Corbis at Somerset House where delegates were able to enjoy a fabulous exhibition organised by the prestigious World Photography Association.

The resounding message coming back from this year's Congress was how great it had been for business! In a week that saw more economic crisis and concern in the Eurozone, it was wonderful to hear how much business had been done - new and old - and how delegates were delighted to meet so many people in one place.

ByDavid Price-HughesNext week, over six hundred picture professionals will descend on East London for this year’s CEPIC Congress. Stock agencies will rub shoulders with heritage libraries, RM will square up to RF, and this year, more than ever, footage will sit next to still photography.

Rather than events like fotofringe and Visual Connections, which attract picture buyers, the CEPIC Congress is speed dating for picture archives. We rekindle relationships with existing suppliers and agents, strike up some new friendships and flirt with the competition.
