During the first workshop, S\u00f8ren Pagter lectured about genres, story types, ethics and visual approaches. And he worked together with the students on different editing exercises to teach them visual story telling. The coming workshops will be conducted by DMJX teachers Gitte Luk and Mads Greve. Gitte Luk will teach writing for photojournalists and Mads Greve will run a workshop in portraiture. After these three workshops, the students will work on individual stories and in March, Gitte Luk and S\u00f8ren Pagter will return to edit the final stories with the students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1667\" src=\"https:\/\/photo.dmjx.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/DEDI_class_01lille_Islam-Safwat-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5003\"\/><figcaption><em>As part of the workshop, each participant brought a broad selection of images from one of their stories.
