Cour se Objectives In this course students will build upon knowledge from Digital Photo 1 and /or the Advanced
Digital Photo 3 credit course. We will continue to work with the technical aspects of using the
DSLR camera while emphasizing the use of photography for expressive and narrative purposes,
and as a vehicle of communication. We will engage in concept- based assignments focusing
on abstraction, communicating ideas as well as explore alternative photo processes. Finally,
we will work to create photo series exploring ideas of their own choosing. Emphasis will be
placed on analyzing other photographers work and seeing how photography can play an
important role in history and culture. Each student will work to develop their own artists
statement and display a body of work from their photography portfolio.
