E-PPRENTICE As part of our Mentors Program, E-pprentice, an electronic apprenticeship, opens a creative and technological dialogue between emerging and established professional photographers. The 6-month online e-pprenticeship facilitates bi-monthly meetings using the internet as the platform for communication and sharing of ideas. This program is free to the public. Mentors will include BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO previous Lucie Award recipients, as well as other honored photographers who have proven their dedication to photography and the next round of image-makers. Their expertise range from advertising, fine art, photojournalism and fashion, not to mention sports and portraiture. You will be paired based on style and expertise, since Lucie Honorees have mastered film techniques as well as the digital medium. Information about previous Lucie Award recipients can be found on LucieAwards.com. Each 6-month mentorship provides a minimum of two sessions of contact per month.
