How to Make a Book Workshop

Before you make a book of your photography, learn how a book is made from award winning photobook publishers David Carol and Ashly Stohl, the duo behind Peanut Press, and Paris Visone, whose book For Real was recently released.

Join us on Saturday, December 15, 2018 from 11am-3:30pm at the House of Lucie Gallery at The Row DTLA in Los Angeles, California.

The workshop will include:

11am-12:30pm - HOW TO MAKE A BOOK

Using our most recent book by Paris Visone as an example, we will take you through the complicated process of making a book, from concept to reality.  Some topics we will cover include:

How do you know you’re ready for a book?
Finding the right publisher for you
Approaching a publisher
How is a book made (design, pre-press, printing, binding)
Editions
Now you have a book, how do you sell it?

12:30-1:30 - LUNCH BREAK

1:30-3:30 - GROUP PORTFOLIO REVIEWS
Bring 20-30 pictures of your best work - multiple projects are good.  David Carol and Ashly Stohl will review your work and discuss what it needs to be on it's way to becoming a book!
