Summer internship in fashion studies

Every year, students of our School participate in a 5-day summer Internship programme at the Pearl Academy. This year, 4 students of class XI interned at the Rajouri campus. There were other participants from various schools across Delhi.

On the first day, the interns were asked to select a course. We chose Fashion Photography. It was followed by a talk on our chosen subject to give us relevant information. The interns from different schools were formed into teams for collaborative work.

The next three days, the various techniques of taking pictures with a DSLR or an SLR camera were shown to us. Our instructor pointed out the different parts of a camera and their functions. We learned many new features;how to adjust the lighting for taking good quality pictures in the studio, as well as, in the natural light.

We enjoyed the task of strolling on the campus to take pictures on topics given by our instructor. It was quite a fun-filled and competitive activity.

On the last day, we visited a factory to see how the fashion industry works.We toured the gallery at the Indian Habitat Centre to see the exhibition by various photographers.
