Nordic Journalist Center (NJC) organizes a documentary photography masterclass for 11 Nordic and Russian photographers in Istanbul from November 22nd till 30rd. The masterclass is conducted by DMJX alumni Mads Nissen and DMJX faculty teacher Mads Greve.
The 11 Nordic and Russian photographers have been selected for the “Transit Istanbul” masterclass, where the participants will get educational inputs and inspiration plus time to work on their own stories in Istanbul. While working on their stories, the participants will receive coaching from Mads Nissen and Mads Greve.
