Vellum founders Jim Winn and Nathan Weber have had the pleasure of being on the workshop staff of the University of Kentucky’s Picture Kentucky Photojournalism workshop over the past three years, and are back in Kentucky this week to assist the workshop staff. This year’s workshop brought 17 photojournalism students to Hindman, Ky., to learn how to tell compelling stories through the use of still photography, video and audio.

Prior to arriving for the workshop, Vellum spent a day with Anaconda Drilling, producing images for the company. We will have some behind the scenes photos from the Picture Kentucky workshop online over the next few days, along with some select images from the Anaconda shoot.

About the workshop:The goal of the Picture Kentucky Workshop Series is to teach students how to tell compelling stories through photographs. In addition to shooting picture stories, students will work toward producing a book, multimedia and a web presentation that will be shared with the university, the host communities and the general public. During that process it is the hope of the workshop’s organizers and financial supporters that the students will share in an intense, fulfilling experience that they will carry with them for a lifetime.

The Picture Kentucky Workshop Series currently consists of a fall, winter and spring workshops that document small towns through out the state of Kentucky.
