A game to train your eye and improve your skills on visual language
My Photography Toolbox is a reference deck of cards for those who work with images, photography and visual design.
Each card plays with a visual concept like Composition, Fundamentals, Principles or even Attitudes and is complemented by an example card. The box contains two rule sets, but serves also as an aid in the design process, or as a conversation piece between designers and clients. Whichever use, it’s aim is to improve visual literacy.
My Photography Toolbox can be played with a smartphone or a compact camera; with paper and scissors; with pencils or paint.
The second edition is available at BIS publishers, Bol, Laurence King (UK), Barnes & Noble (USA), museum shops and concept stores
