2008 Motorsports Photography Workshop Schedule Announced
The David Allio Motorsports Photography Workshop schedule for 2008 includes
two different programs at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway and one at the
Hickory Motor Speedway. Photography enthusiasts may participate in
intensive immersion programs of short track oval photography, drag racing
photography, and for the first time superspeedway photography.
Each two-day motorsports photography workshop program includes technical
instruction in actual trackside racing environments, plus valuable
information regarding copyright, image licensing and sales, professional
conduct, getting published, and marketing. The goal of each program is to
allow participants learn more to earn more.
"As these motorsports photography workshops have grown in content and
popularity, we have put significant emphasis on providing participants with
real working environments," Allio said. "Adding superspeedway photography,
for the first time, to the overall curriculum compliments the unique
experience provided by these workshops. The race tracks are our classroom."
Workshop instructor, David Allio has been a working professional
motorsports photographer since 1974. He is a member of both Canon and Nikon
Professional Services. During his 33-year award-winning career, Allio
photographs have appeared in the pages and on the cover of nearly every
sports publication in the world. Recent publication credits outside of the
mainstream motorsports media include a "trifecta" of Sports Illustrated,
ESPN Magazine, and The Sporting News all in the same month, USA Today, and
the book "ESPN Ultimate NASCAR 100 Defining Moments in Stock Car Racing
History."
Participation in each photography workshop is limited to allow for more
individual attention. Questions are encouraged. Advance registration is
required. Participants may find more information and register online at:
