Talk at Photographer's Gallery

The Social

Self Publishing


27 June 2011 18:30-21:00

Self-publishing your own photo book has become a popular way of keeping creative control of how your work is seen.Presenting your own work in this way is no longer seen as a vanity enterprise, but has that sigma entirely gone? How can you get your self-published book or magazine seen?

This evening we will ask how to get the best out of self-publishing websites, when is it better to go it alone, and when is it worth holding out for a publishing deal...

The Social is a monthly bar-night with tips and advice about how to get on in the photography world, organised by The British Journal of Photography and The Photographers’ Gallery

Location:
Barrio Central
Poland Street
London, W1F 8PS

Free, no booking
