Kolkata | August 31, 2026: Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL) hosted an engaging photography workshop, “Composition & Lighting Techniques,” on August 31, 2026, bringing together creativity, technology and visual storytelling. Organised by GDG on Campus Techno Main Salt Lake in collaboration with Fujifilm X | GFX and the Techno Main BMS Department, the workshop offered participants an opportunity to explore the art and technical aspects of photography.
The immersive session focused on helping participants develop a more thoughtful approach to photography by understanding how composition and lighting can transform an ordinary scene into a compelling visual story.

The workshop featured valuable guidance from Anoop Guha, Ambassador at Fujifilm, and Aritra Das, Fujifilm X-Photographer, Trainer and Mentor. Through their expertise and practical insights, the speakers introduced participants to the nuances of visual composition and encouraged them to observe their surroundings from new perspectives.
The event was conducted under the leadership of Srijan Paul, Lead Organizer, GDG on Campus Techno Main Salt Lake, whose efforts continue to create opportunities for students and community members to explore diverse areas of learning. The workshop reflected the community’s commitment to extending learning beyond conventional technology domains and encouraging creativity through hands-on experiences.
A special mention was given to Subham Ghosh for bringing Fujifilm to the community and playing an important role in facilitating the collaboration.

The “Composition & Lighting Techniques” workshop highlighted the importance of interdisciplinary learning at TMSL. While technology remains an important part of the student experience, opportunities such as these encourage students to develop creative observation, visual communication and storytelling skills.
The event also demonstrated how photography can be more than simply capturing a moment. With the right understanding of composition, light and perspective, a photograph can communicate an idea, evoke an emotion and tell a story.

The workshop added another meaningful chapter to the institution’s journey of creating engaging learning experiences that go beyond conventional academic boundaries.
