Welcome to Art 240.  Contemporary photographic processes and ideas are explored in a variety of forms.

 
Young-Min Kang

This is a course that encourages you to think about photography as an art form. Assignments are meant to encourage individual, unique approaches and highlight experimentation.   Getting in-progress feedback is an important part of the course. Introductions to basic lighting ideas and digital and manual manipulation techniques are introduced. There will be individual written and visual assignments, required participation in discussions, as well as a few group activities.
