first week of class: 1) a camera (35mm or 21/4”) with fully adjustable f/stops
and shutter speeds, 2) a hand-held
reflected light exposure meter. No previous darkroom experience is required.

A Photographic Seeing |

9:30
- 12:30 pm |
Woods |
PART |
Beyond the material technique of photography lies a
visual technique. This involves learning to see the way a camera sees; learning
how a photograph, by its nature, transforms the world in front of the camera.
The first half of the semester is devoted to exploring this visual grammar of
photography and how it clarifies a photograph's meaning and the photographer's
intent. During the second half of the semester, students pursue independent
projects, putting their visual understanding into practice. Not available
for online registration.
Prerequisite:
Photography 101 or 103.

PART |
2 credits Without light there is no vision. The dark
chamber of the camera will remain inactive. Light as such is the energy of miracles,
it can be administered in many ways…existing light and how it changes the
atmosphere of the material world. The class will be partially comprised of
analyzing the nature of those changes. Created light.. Incandescent or flash or
strobe.... The theatre of ambient creation... The class will be organized in
part by certain formulas and by the interpretation of those formulas to go
beyond them into personal discovery and expression. All forms of technology
will be utilized. Light which exists or which is created can be the tool to
release the personal light from within. Each student’s vision is considered and
augmented. This class will meet every
other Tuesday. Prerequisite: PHOT 105 Not available for online registration.

To prepare the student for ongoing independent
work, this course emphasizes the exploration of visual problems. At the heart

individual projects. Not available for online registration.

PART |
This is a course designed for
students with a basic understanding of the Adobe Photoshop software
application. Emphasis will be placed on exploring digital photography from both
a technical and theoretical perspective. In addition to learning various
advanced imaging techniques, students will be encouraged to critically examine
the ways in which digital imaging effects how we make and look at photographs.
Through hands on practice and in-class critique and dialogue, the class will
examine a variety of issues central to photography in the digital era, such as
“What is the relationship of digital photography to traditional, analog
photography? To what degree has our faith in the veracity of the photographic
image been altered by the seamless editing capabilities of digital photography?
How have issues of authorship, ownership, and copyright been effected? How
might photographers best utilize the interactive arenas of multi-media and the
internet? Students will be expected to bring work to class on a weekly basis
and to participate in class critiques. Open to both photo and non-photo
students. Prerequisite: Digital Imaging
1, or permission of the instructor. Not available for online registration.
