Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this digital photography class:

We'll be covering all the nuts-to-bolts aspects of exposure, shutter speeds, aperture, ISO, depth of field, motion blur, as well as comparing different lenses and the basics of composition. Class instruction strongly emphasizes technical understanding and operating in the field, with weekly assignments and critique.

Digital Photo I is a goal-oriented process. Students will learn how to use these skills towards their favorite type of photography and work to perfect their craft by creating a series of final images. We emphasize exploring creativity and experimentation to achieve goals, while discussing the "why" in addition to "how".

This introductory workshop is great for anyone who wants to discover the foundations and potential of digital photography.

Your camera, fully-charged batteries, and a clean-formatted memory card.
