final project: CHOICES

Digital Photography
Kirstyn Russell

Final Assignment: Choices

1. Book Project-
Create a 15 page (at least) double-sided page book. You will come up with one theme and explore it thoroughly and thoughtfully. You will work on sequencing, sizing, and content. You will utilize your color correction skills. Feel free to scan images (i.e. Polaroid’s, found images, etc) to include in your book. All digital images must be shot in RAW-you should shoot extensively for the project and depending on what your project is-450 images would not be unreasonable.

2.Collage Project-
You will create three images with clear and consistent themes made from at least two different sources: your own shooting, one found image (web, magazine, book, old photos.) These sources may include: digital images from cameras, scanned images: your own or found, scanned hand rendered materials, scanned objects, text (found or written for the project), elements rendered in Photoshop. This would give you an opportunity to combine other interest...writing, drawing, painting. You will print the images on 11x17 paper.

A diptych (pronounced "dip-tick" IPA: [ dip'tik] (or US: [ 'dɪp.tɪk ]) from the Greek δίπτυχο [ ði'pti.xo ] di- "two" + ptychē "fold")

People, Places, Things



For this assignment you will create 5 diptychs. Use your 400 shots to photograph PEOPLE, PLACES, and THINGS—you should shoot at least three rolls for each topic. Pay attention to quality of light—try shooting in the early evening, in the fog, in various kinds of artificial light, at night with long shutter speeds, etc. Remember to make INTERESTING IMAGES that will work well in pairs.

Your first 40 shots should be 400 ISO or less and should be shot between the hours of 10am and 2pm outside on a bright day. Make sure to make contact sheets of all your images.
40 must be slower than 400 ISO
40 must be 400 ISO
40 must be 800 ISO or above
The rest of the shots are your choice.

Over the next few class you will be bringing in Raw images to work on using Adobe Raw. The images will be placed next to each other in diptychs. Examples will be shown in class.. You will be outputting onto 8.5x11 paper using the Epson printer.
