Vitale Digital Media Lab Workshop: DigiCam Walk

Spend an afternoon with the Vitale Digital Media Lab team as we use our early 2000s digital cameras to capture some of the beautiful outdoor scenery Penn has to offer. During this workshop, you will learn the importance of making photography an accessible medium and why society is repopularizing old photographic formats like the digicam, while also building community with others that share similar interests.

Special Note: Attendees that provide their own photo camera to the workshop do not need to register
