Course Summary
An introduction to photography in which students learn to use their camera’s manual shutter speed, aperture, and ISO settings to control exposure and effects. They learn the fundamentals of composition and lighting, and experiment with angle, framing, lens choice, and exposure. They present their work and learn how to give and receive criticism. Finally, each student curates a selection of photographs to exhibit in a final show. Students need to bring their own DSLR camera with USB cable, charger, manual, and at least one 8GB memory card.
