In this course, students will focus on the media image and its implications in their work. In practice, the photograph has become a drawing tool for the artist. This course will explore photography and video in relation to painting and drawing. Projects in lighting, composition, color and its effects will be explored in still photography and the moving image. Stop-motion video effects will be used to animate a drawing. Photography and its software will be employed to address space, texture and volume as formal concerns in image-making. Students will also learn how to document their work.
