Among these, the continuous innovation in camera technology is a key focus for every brand, making smartphones an excellent choice for photography. If you're looking for an alternative to DSLRs or digital cameras, a smartphone is indeed the perfect option: it's lightweight and portable, its interface appears user-friendly, and you can instantly share photos with friends and family. While convenient, after a while, you might feel the desire to elevate the quality of your photos! "I want to learn how to take better-looking photos with my phone!" Pressing the shutter button isn't difficult, but your photos seem to lack variety... "I feel like some people's photos look amazing! And they're using the same phone." It seems like there are still some features on my phone's camera that I don't quite know how to use! "It would be great if there were some small tips or tricks!" **This two-hour workshop is designed for anyone who wants to capture beautiful photos with their smartphone. Building on the convenience and intuitive nature of mobile phones, we'll guide you through the basic camera interface, recommend useful features, and introduce essential, timeless composition techniques. For those eager to learn mobile photography, this is your chance to grasp the fundamentals and acquire practical skills in one go.** If you've encountered these challenges, the content covered in this workshop can help: ■ You see a beautiful landscape, but your phone photos never quite capture the scene as vividly. ■ At popular tourist spots, crowded scenes often result in cluttered photos. ■ When taking photos of others, you worry about not getting a good shot, or struggling to balance the person with the background. ■ You're unsure about the purpose or usage of some of your phone's camera functions. Compared to other photography tools that can seem daunting, leading to hesitation even after a few attempts, starting with mobile photography is an excellent entry point! https://www.dace.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/%E6%89%8B%E6%A9%9F%E6%94%9D%E5%BD%B1%E8%AA%B2%E7%A8%8B%EF%BC%9A%E4%B8%80%E7%9C%BC%E7%9E%AC%E9%96%93_%E5%85%A7%E5%AE%B9%E5%9C%96-1.jpg **Course Content:** 1.
