This course is an introduction to photography through digital imaging and editing. Students explore photo manipulation using digital cameras and imaging software, such as Photoshop. Students will create photo montages and digital graphics using a variety of resources and learn photo retouching, photo restoring and black and white photo color tinting techniques. General Mac platform topics like printing, scanning and file sharing, as well as basic elements of color theory, design and composition will also be covered.
Photography 2
This course is a continuation of digital darkroom and would create a sequence in photography. As students become more confident in the medium, the class will provide students a place to work on more open-ended photography projects such as landscape, portraiture and still life. This course requires weekly shooting assignments that are completed outside of class. Students pursuing a photography or design portfolio for the Advanced Placement program can work on their individual portfolios in class.
