This course is designed to
provide basic technical, artistic, and theoretical instruction
used in the creation of digital photographic imagery.
The
course will provide technical instruction concerning the operation
of digital cameras and their settings, as well as provide tips
and information to improve your photographic skills.
Assignments will consist of individual
projects performed outside of class meeting times.
The due date is always
part of the assignment.
Late work will not be accepted.
Images are to be turned in on a CD-R (Please no DVD-R's) in jpeg, tiff or psd
format. Do not send me a link to your photo bucket or flickr account.
As an alternate (and preferred) method of turn-in, work may be emailed to the email address at
the top of the syllabus by Noon prior to the day
it is to be shown. If I receive it, you will get a confirmation email. If you
don't get an email it is your responsibility to follow up. Do not expect an email
on Thursdays or Fridays.
Email is a convenience with many restrictions, so don't rely on it or wait until
the last minute to send. You also have to make the image small enough to send, (1024 pixels or smaller (width or height) at 72 dpi resolution).
Only turn in 5 images per assignment. Any images beyond the
first five on a disk will be ignored.
All class information is posted via the web at http://www.withmeat.com.
Information, techniques, demonstrations,
slide lectures, discussions and critiques will be taught throughout. Students
are required to attend all lecture and lab times unless instructed differently.
It
is the responsibility of the student to get any missed information from
other students in the class. I will
not email
you an entire lecture. Lectures will not be repeated. If
you know in advance that you are not going to be in class, please make
arrangements with another student to provide you with missed information.
This course is not graded.
There is no requiredc textbook for this class.
It is the responsibility of the student to know and adhere to all
college deadlines and procedures. If you can no longer attend the
class, make sure you drop it properly.
Please discuss any special needs you may require with the instructor at the beginning
of the semester so that arrangements can be made to facilitate your success in
the class.
