ART 300 - Advanced Digital Photography

This course is designed for students ready to pursue more advanced technical, conceptual, and theoretical uses of the digital camera. The course will build from technical skills and techniques learned in ART 200 - Digital Photography I, and will expand into a more advanced understanding of the technical aspects of digital imaging. New technical territory will include advanced digital manipulation, in-depth exploration of lighting equipment and techniques, and the use of professional quality printers in the production of fine art prints. The course will also spend considerable time discussing and reading seminal texts in the history of photography in an attempt to clarify the condition of current photographic practice. Course assignments will be geared toward a more independent, self designed mode allowing students to pursue their own interests.

Pre-req: ART 200 or 204
