Renowned Ghanaian Photographer, Bob Pixel, known in official circles as Emmanuel Bobbie will on Friday, November 23 storm the Ghana Institute of Journalism (GIJ) for the maiden edition of the Image Makers Conference (IMC) 2018 scheduled to commence at 12pm.

Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Bamman Studios, Nii Adjei Mensahfio, a Level 300 student of GIJ stated that the conference boasts of an array of staunch experts in Photography and Modeling as resource persons who would be imparting knowledge.

“This conference is going to be a very big one. We have a number of big names coming aboard as resource persons to impart knowledge to the participants.

“We all know Bob Pixel. He is one of Ghana’s finest and biggest photographers. He will be there, plus some other big people in Photography and Modeling” he stated.

“It’s free. This is the first time we are doing this and it is absolutely free. It is also open to everyone and not only students of GIJ”, he added.

It also aims at showing participants the most efficient ways of determining their value in the real world, provide a solid foundation for beginners and amateurs and raise a generation of Photographers and Models with a high level of professionalism and uncompromising working ethics.
