The Photo essay is a collection of images that are stylistically or thematically unified in order to tell a story. We will explore the idea of story and how to capture the audience and tell a particular tale. The class will cover basic photography, and the students will be able to tell a fiction or non-fiction story. The class will shoot on 35mm cameras, and we will critique and discuss each other’s work, as well as looking at master photographers’ works and essayists. The year will end with a final gallery showing of the students’ work.

I want to do my project on the contrasts of the country and city. I’m planning on taking pictures on the fields, gardens, beaches and farms out here. Then I’m planning on taking photos of the city and it’s architecture. I’m thinking about incorporating video into both of these segments. The point of this is to show how even though our two areas are fairly close to each other, they are really different.
