No previous photography experience is required. Woods Studio Beyond the material technique of photography lies a visual technique. The first half of the semester is devoted to exploring this visual grammar of photography and how it clarifies a photograph's meaning and the photographer's intent. During the second half of the semester, students pursue independent projects, putting their visual understanding into practice. Woods Studio Light is the co-author of image.
Light can be brazen or bland.
It can dramatize or simply describe. This course deals with the exploration of found light or artificially detonated light strobe. Each week the assignments alternate between real or natural light and artificial or created light. These exercises attempt to clarify the differences and the similarities between the two kinds and how light serves the vision of the light within. In the second half of the semester each student undertakes an individual project based on what has already been experienced.
