Later in the seminar, panel discussions took place, which were followed by a workshop conducted by the Sony team. The workshop underlined the technical and aesthetical appraisal of photography.

Dean of school of arts and design of Woxsen University Aditya Saxena said: "International photography seminars can play an important role in developing discourse in the context of photography study and research in India by promoting cross-cultural exchange, providing exposure to new ideas and techniques and creating networking opportunities for students, academicians and enthusiastic photography audiences".
