In March 2022, a group of 16 people came from Wejherowo in Poland to develop their photography skills in Seville. Half of them were working in an educational centre that is committed to training and development, and people, providing a harmonious and integral education. The centre is located in the district of Triana, which is a beautiful, old part of the city, that was kept in many photographies shot by the students.

Their main tasks included: getting to know the main stages of creating an advertising campaign, introducing the apprentice to the strategy and concept of creativity, becoming familiar with the basic procedures for creating graphics in Photoshop, learning basic video ad editing skills, creating a campaign-based focus group, preparing equipment and materials for the campaign, drawing, creating and editing collages for your campaign and preparing photos most suitable for the needs of customers.

The other half of students from Wejherowo had their practice in a photography company specialized in various areas, mainly shooting in weddings, advertising and events coverage. Tasks that they carried out were: analysing the sector and current competition, assembling a professional photographic kit and learning how to use it, preparing a photo shoot using a moodboard and within a prior budget, taking professional studio shots with models (photo and video), editing and creating layouts in Lightroom and Photoshop, editing videos using Adobe Premiere, creating content for social networks and creating web content with SEO copywriting.

On the weekends, they have been taken to trips to Granada, the city of three religions and cultures: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The great variety of stunning landscapes and views that Granada has to offer since the city is located at the foot of a mountain range called Sierra Nevada; and Cadiz, located in southwestern Spain, which is often considered the oldest city in Europe as it was founded in 1100 BC. It is a typical Andalusian pueblo blanco (white town) with many attractive sights and well-preserved historical landmarks.

Besides all that, students had their free time in Seville, while they could enjoy and experience the culture of Spain. Moreover, the group had guided Seville city tour and intensive short but dynamic Spanish language course. All in all, the project was successful and it was our pleasure to collaborate with students!
