ART 5035 Film Photography: Beginners
This course will focus on how to use a 35mm film based camera to take a photograph. Photography:Beginers is a traditional 35mm film and darkroom based "wet photography" course. Photographic optics, correct exposure, developing the negative, making contact prints and enlargements(using lighting and filters), and finishing and mounting prints will be taught. Students will be introduced to the aesthetics of photography-the visual elements of form, texture, pattern and line-and how to creatively use them photographically. The aim is to develop an individual aesthetic. The work of some important photographers will also be examined.
