Digital Black and White


With Douglas Cunningham
With a resurgence of interest in black and white photography, we have added a new course this term. Even better, it is a digital black and white class, which will apply the old film concepts to the new digital age. During the course of this class, students will improve upon their metering skills and learn the zone-system as it applies to the digital camera. More importantly, however, they will be challenged to make dramatic black and white images they can ultimately hang on their wall as art.
Days and Times: Thursdays 9:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Dates: May 3 - June 7

Intermediate Photo: Painting with Light
With Mahmood Fazal

Photography literally means writing with light. During this class, students will learn the behavior of light and how it impacts their photography. The instructor will discuss lighting controls such as aperture, shutter speed and ISO. Students will learn to see light as a subject, find light, and mix ambient and created lights such as flashes, flashlights and other lighting apparatuses to add a unique creative outlet to their picture making. It's a fun class where students are only as limited as their imagination.

Days and Times: Thursday 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Dates: May 3 - June 7.
