Damir Šagolj, vrsni naš novinar fotograf, predvodio je sjajnim i jako iskrenim predavanjima workshop u sarajevskom Mediacentru na temu IZAZOVI FOTOREPORTERSTVA. Pricao je o svojim iskustvima s ratista, nacinima na koje dolazi u razne prilike da fotografira, tehnikama koje koristi, tehnici itd. Napravio sam jedn reportazu u sklopu koje sam s svojim Halidom Bunicem organizirao projekciju filma u domu za slijepe i slabovidne. Reportaza se bavi njima. Pokusaj je bio otvoriti blendu i velikom ekspozicijom uciniti slike, takoreci prirodno mutnima, kao sto je i pogled te divne dijece. Za vrijeme projekcije jedan slijepi djecak je zelio saznati sta je fotoaparat. objasnio sam mu. onda je zelio slikati. sve njegove slike cuvami puno su bolje od mojih. Hvala toj divnoj djeci kojoj cu opet organizirati filmske projekcije.
ACCEPTED INTO THE WORKSHOP ORGANIZED BY REUTERS' PHOTOREPORTER DAMIR SAGOLJ
“Challenges of a journalistic photo-reporter”
Damir Šagolj, our acclaimed journalist-photographer, opened with a brilliant and extremely honest keynote lecture the workshop organized by Sarajevo Media Center on the topic of “Challenges of Photojournalism.” He talked about his experiences from the war zones, the ways in which he comes by different opportunities to photoreport, about the techniques he uses, about technology etc.
So, as a response, I produced a short video, which I subsequently screened, with the help of my friend Halid Bunic, at the Organization for the Blind and Partially Blind. This short film is about their members. The idea was to open up the lens and increase exposition to produce photographs which are “naturally” blurry, to emulate the way in which these kids see the world.
During the screening, one blind boy wanted to know what's a still camera, so I explained it to him. He then wanted to take photos. I am guarding all of his photos even more carefully than my own. I am grateful to those wonderful kids for whom I will surely organize other film screenings.
