The Final Countdown

Your final portfolio will consist of...
10 people
10 still life
10 series

You will need 15 prints. You can decide which 15 to print, or we can discuss it in the coming weeks.
There is a lot to do in the next few weeks, so please make the most of your time.
Some of the images from earlier in the semester may be used, but none of the photos shot during class demos are allowed.

Be prepared to discuss your work this week and every week with me and/or Haigen.  We will be able to guide you on the final project and help you select images that are worthy of being in the final portfolio.

Final Portfolio

The Final Round

Chris was confused. I hope this is clear.

On the last day of class, May 2nd,  you will have three sets of images due.

10 images (5 printed) People 

10 images (5 printed) Still Life

10 images (5 printed) Self-directed final series

These images can be from any point in the semester. Of course if all the images are from your in-class exercises, your portfolio and grade won't be very good.

I will collect the 30 images on my computer. We will share and critique the 15 prints in class.

You may add more images to the digital folder if you wish. You may hang more than 5 in any group if you wish.

Don't forget the motion project!

Motion

Due April 18th. Please produce 7 images that explore the idea of motion. This could be frozen motion, blurred motion or both in the same shot.

More still life examples.

Of course you can have your work lean more toward art vs commerce

 if you have a good idea for a project.
