Welcome Back: Fall 2010

Welcome Back Photo Students!

This blog is intended to provide you with additional resources related to assignments, readings and image production for this course.

For Next Monday --

Blog Assignment:
1. I would like you to explore several of the links on the right. In particular, please take a look at those that revisit information from 2D Design. (more information on color section)

2. Pick a Cabinet Magazine reading and write a short response to the way that color is described and enlivened by the author. How do their descriptions open up new perceptions of that color? Your short (one page) response is due at our next meeting.

3. Gather materials for printing (color paper, negative sleeves, film) & bring them to the next class. ***Do not open your color paper***

4. Shoot two rolls of film, get them processed, and bring them to the next class.
Ask for "C-41 processing, do not cut", be sure to use a professional lab
Cut the film yourself and put it in a plastic sleeve, store in a binder

Bring your paper and printing materials, your developed film, and your response to the Cabinet reading to the next class. We will have an extended in-class lab.

p.s. - I have left up some resources from last semester so that you can take a look. They will apply to assignments later in the semester. To avoid confusion, check the posting date. Fall postings are listed first.
