Contribution of the Course to Professional Development |
Course Content: This is a course in basic digital photography. The theoretical component deals with the basic functions of the camera, the use of lighting, principles of composition, interaction between colors, visions of architecture and interiors, and basic principles of the elaboration of photos on the computer. The practical component involves picture-taking and the preparation of a photo exhibition. Each student must be equipped with a digital camera with a wide lens or a 3x or greater optical zoom, and camera functions selector which includes M,A,S,P. A tripod is strongly recommended. Modern single-lens reflex (SLR) digital cameras with interchangeable lenses are highly recommended. Additionally, students learn how to document their work like a slide portfolio, digital portfolio, resume and to present it professionally. |
