Through a humorous and charming set of tutorials, necessary lessons on how to become a certain type of photographer are taught by Thomas Vanden Driessche. Each photograph is clever as it hilariously mocks the photography scene. Among others, he touches how to become a conceptual, war and contemporary photography.
Each infographic contains four lessons, which make them so easy to digest. This also adds to the parody aspect as it suggests that becoming a photographer is just that simple. The lessons are paired with a comical image of Thomas, which helps in teaching his points.
I really enjoyed how Thomas Vanden Driessche used a vintage style feel in his images through the use of typewriter font, black and white imagery and retro material.
