Question 3

How are the workshops structured?

Accepted Answer

A three hour workshop typically has the same flow. The first hour is for meet and greet, lecture or shoot planning based on the workshop theme, and setup.
 
Instructors are there to help you were ever you have explained to us where it's needed during the meet and greet. Then we monitor folks progress and make suggestions as the workshop continues. 
 
If you are there just to shoot the lineup of modeling talent to build up your portfolio, go for it! It's encouraged.
