Fake it: Children discover the tricks behind perfect influencer photos
Perfect selfies, dreamy vacation pictures, and spectacular adventures often seem deceptively real on social media. In the workshop Fake it – the beautiful facade of influencers, children and teenagers aged 9 to 14 discover how digital images are created, edited, and deliberately staged.
Exciting insights into the world of digital images
With curiosity and a critical eye, the participants examine the tricks behind seemingly perfect influencer shots. The age-appropriate workshop enhances media literacy and conveys that images on the internet often do not show the whole reality.
Getting creative with photography and AI
After taking a joint look behind the scenes, the children create their own fake artworks. They combine classic photography techniques with modern digital tools and AI applications. This results in imaginative images that invite wonder, laughter, and reflection.
Learning, creating, and handling media safely
The family experience combines learning fun with creative design. The teenagers develop a better understanding of image editing, staging, and digital reality. At the same time, the practical learning experience fosters their own creativity and promotes a conscious approach to photos on the internet.
Free entry at the Neumühl neighborhood library
The workshop takes place on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM at the Neumühl neighborhood library in Duisburg. Participation is free of charge. Registration is done online through the events section of the Duisburg city library.
Conclusion: Children and teenagers can expect a creative, informative, and age-appropriate family experience around influencer photos, media literacy, and digital image worlds. Those who want to discover together how seemingly real images become fascinating stagings will experience five hours full of curiosity, children's laughter, and practical learning experience.
