Learn the skills to take your photography beyond the single image and create a narrative story. This course will teach you how to start a photographic project and create meaning with your images. You will learn how to weave together different techniques to communicate your concept. Students will spend 6 weeks working on a photographic project and developing a story. We will look through photographic books to examine how photographers before us have created visual stories and learn photographic and storytelling techniques. A perfect course for seasoned photographers looking to create meaning with their images or get feedback on ongoing visual projects! Must have an understanding of how to use a digital camera, proper manual exposure, and composition. Students who have taken "Intermediate Digital Photo (now called Digital Photography II)" will be able to advance their photographic knowledge with this course. All digital cameras are welcome as long as they can shoot manually and in RAW format. Students will be assigned a computer workstation accessible during class time. It is requested all students provide a new, unused memory card for their camera before interfacing with computers in the lab.

Materials fee will support ink and paper for upto five 8.5 x 11 prints per/student.
