Course Description:
An introduction to the practice of digital photography as a means to document or comment on the world around us. We will learn the functions of the DSLR or mirrorless camera, basic digital editing skills, and the grammar and syntax of visual thinking as a vehicle to articulate a personal point of view. This class focuses on visual narrative and engagement with ideas and forms beyond the photographic process itself. You should expect to work a minimum of six hours per week in addition to class time and spend significant time photographing off-campus. You must have access to a DSLR or mirrorless camera with manual controls. For questions regarding cameras for the course, please email instructor.
