This advanced digital photography course is a continuation of Photography 1,2,3,4 except a deeper exploration and a higher level of proficiency will be expected and an element of "risk" as a component of all work. Students will be encouraged to find their own area of interest and pursue it with a passion. Students will produce a professional portfolio by the end of the year. Students are required to furnish their own Digital Camera. The school will provide high-end computers and professional software to manipulate both digital and traditional black and white photographs.
Course Rules: Camera strap must be around your neck when you are in possession of digital camera. All food and drink is a hazard and should not be consumed while operating any equipment including computers. No cell phone usage during class, and IPod usage is not permitted during class discussion. A reflection is required to receive a full grade. No visitors or leaving class without permission, and you must check in and out on clipboard. Removing any equipment or private property that does not belong to you is against the law and all violations will be reported to the SD police department. SD police will not investigate cell phone or IPod theft, so if you bring it to school you are at risk. Use of the computers for anything other than course work is not permitted, and you will be asked to move if you are using it for none class related activities.
Supplies: Flash Drive is recommended. A external drive is provided, however if a student wishes to maintain control over their images I suggest they save all of their work on a external drive. If students are series about taking pictures outside of school they will need their own digital camera.
