PHOT-322: Photographic Series

This class is intended to develop a cohesive body of work with consistency of subject matter, technique, and process. The class is project-driven. This "series" of images can be an extension, re-vamp, or redirection of subject matter already begun prior to taking the class, or it can be an entirely new concept and body of work. Student must have access to subject matter chosen. The goal is a completed series of new or extended work to augment your portfolio or possibly to become a self-published book. Topics addressed in the course will include the esthetics of a "series mentality", how one delves deeper into subject matter as well as shining a light on the psychological development of artists and the process of creating their work. Collateral materials, research, previous student projects and historical references will be required and will be discussed in class. A completed series of images (either in print of book form) will be required at the end of the 14-week term.
