UBUNTU PHOTOGRAPHY FELLOWSHIP INCUBATION PROGRAM
The Ubuntu Photography Fellowship: a new community on NEAR announces its Incubation Program: a training for aspiring creative photographers to nurture their skills in creative photography and photojournalism while also being inducted into the web 3 way for sales of photo art as NFTs.
What does this incubation entail? in order to define this properly, we need to understand what the UBUNTU PHOTOGRAPHY FELLOWSHIP is all about. The UBUNTU PHOTOGRAPHY FELLOWSHIP which was once titled the Pictorial and Documentary Photography community is a commune of creative photographers who want to leverage the power of community in assisting each other towards the right education and inclination in Web 3. The sole purpose of web 3 for the commune is to acclamatize with the blockchain as the appropriate and legitimate medium for art exchange whence these creative photographers can sell their photos as NFTs on the blockchain and make good money. More details about the UBUNTU PHotography Fellowship is outlined in this link.
To define the Incubation program, just like every other incubation propgram, it is a course of grooming for aspiring creative photographers who naturally possess the nuance of imaginary dynamism, emotion and colour needed for the story telling of photo journalism and art appeal of creative photography. An extra advantage to this incubation program is that the qualified graduands are automatically inducted into the UBUNTU PHOTOGRAPHY FELLOWSHIP ART RESIDENCY and are provided the necessary resources and theme in order to contribute content to the fellowship while also learning about Web 3 technology and the opportunity of selling their work as NFTs.
