Digital Photography

Students will become familiarized with the fundamental mechanics of a digital single lens reflex camera and the creative manipulations associated with aperture and shutter speed settings. Using Adobe Photoshop software, students will apply varied corrective practices, in addition to more stylized techniques, to help refine their craft and realize a unique vision. By analyzing the aesthetic properties of their own work as well as the work of accomplished photographers, students will develop an ability to think critically and creatively about their personal artistic choices.
