Learn your camera and take a walk

Students will be introduced to the class goals, schedule, rules, etc., and to us and each other.  We will also present the basics of digital photography, show them examples of work from an artist who uses walking and a process-based method, and play a game that simulates the whole process of creating that the students will be engaged in throughout the week.  In the afternoon we’ll take a walk around downtown, allowing the students to choose their own route at designated points along the way.  They will be photographing with certain guidelines based on their directional decisions.  The route they map out will be retraced throughout the week.
