Wednesday: 3/2 Prints due and final selection of images uploaded to UA Box
Deliverables:
- 2 PSDs (with embedded RAW smart objects) files that demonstrate your digital editing skills and workflow using skills taught in class.
- 10-15 1200 pixel jpegs of strongest images
3 exhibition-worthy prints of strongest images (same images as jpegs)
Work will be evaluated on:
- Clarity and consistency of concept... do the images support the main idea of your project?
- Strength of images (framing, composition, etc.)
- Technical camera skills (sharp focus, solid exposures)
- Photoshop /image editing skills
- Project is adequately realized (follow-through)
- Print quality
Develop a strong group of photographs around a distinctive concept, idea or theme. Remember, a specific subject is not necessarily the same things as a concept. Come up with your concept, idea or theme first, and then find subject matter that supports this.
For this project, we will be using "straight" approaches to photography (minimal photoshop).
A collection of haphazard images does not make for a strong project. Intention is important, as well as follow-through and a tight edit/image selection.
Inspiration: Consider how each of these artists have engaged a primary concept, idea or theme to form the basis for their projects. Whether the project features people, places or things in some way or another, the photographs within each project answer a very specific calling.
