"You don't take a photograph, you make it."- Ansel Adams
From here you will be able to access all the projects we will do. If you miss a day, for whatever reason, you need to come here to get what you missed.
Take photos of what you like and apply to the theme! This makes for better photos. Do NOT use photos that you already have. This class is for taking new photo, not reusing old ones! During this class, students will build upon skills and exercises to create a final portfolio. The class is broken up into 3 sections. Section 1 contains the foundation for photography and learning the skills to get you ready for the projects. Section 2 contains the projects to build skill and practice the art. (Students will turn in 9 photos for each project) Section 3 contains the final portfolio that students will present at the end of the class. Portfolio will contain the top photo from each project |
There is a download link after every project for a rubric. Or, just click on the top where it says rubric and find the right class.
