One of the most frustrating things in rebranding Nigeria’s fashion industry as a whole is the quality of images that attempt to tell stories of events, fashion shows and so forth. RGB Africa to the rescue!
“RGB Africa [is] an international photography event (based in Nigeria) targeted towards Training, Exhibition, Trade Fair and Tourism .” The producers explain it was, “born out of need to reposition the barriers faced by the industry over the years which mediocrity and lack of adequate information have sustained.” Halleluyah we say!
With its mission to “educate, inform and develop the general participator in the photography industry. Also to develop the industry in the entire continent . . .” RGB Africa prepares for some upcoming training one of which is :
RGB Africa Summer School Photography Training Programme for Secondary (high) School.
Date: August 17th – 19th, 2009
Exhibition: August 21st, 2009
Time: 10am. to 1pm.
