Photography workshop with Robert Sturman, Apr 29 2013 @ AYP Shine Center, Diamond Plaza

Robert Sturman reveals all of his secrets about how to make powerful, poetic images celebrating the beautiful art of yoga.

Aspiring yoga models and yogis learn what it takes to get great pictures. Photography enthusiasts learn about composition, balance, integrating the pose with the surrounding environment, cool phone apps and much more.

In this workshop you can be the photographer, model, artist, muse of all of the above. Bring your camera, phone, questions and curiosity.

Most of the workshop will take place in the Africa Yoga Project Shine Center located at Diamond Plaza on the 4th floor. In the 2nd half, we will stroll nearby streets in the surrounding Parklands neighborhood and catch natural light to create a few masterpieces. Anyone who wants to model can. Everyone can shoot.

Chasing Ice

Film screening: Chasing Ice, Apr. 27 2013 @ National Museum

Chasing Ice

The U.S. Embassy, United States Agency for International Development, United Nations Environment Programme, and the Kenya Museum Society invite you to a special film screening of Chasing Ice in honor of World Earth Day on Saturday, 27 of April at 3:30PM at the Louis Leakey Auditorium, National Museum of Kenya. A Q&A session will follow the film.

In the spring of 2005, acclaimed environmental photographer James Balog went to the Arctic on an assignment with National Geographic to capture images intended to help tell the story of the Earth’s changing climate. Even with a scientific upbringing, Balog had been a skeptic about climate change; but through his Extreme Ice Survey he discovers evidence of our changing planet. Chasing Ice follows Balog across the Arctic as he deploys revolutionary time-lapse cameras designed to capture a multi-year record of the world’s changing glaciers. Balog’s hauntingly beautiful videos compress years into seconds and capture ancient mountains of ice in motion as they disappear at a breathtaking rate. Traveling with a young team of adventurers by helicopter, canoe and dog sled across three continents, Balog risks his career and his well-being in pursuit of the biggest story in human history.

The film was awarded Excellence in Cinematography, US Documentary at the Sundance Film Festival and was nominated for an Oscar for best original song, among many other notable awards.
