FAS 342 - Photo Media: Analog to Digital

This course serves as an introduction to the hybrid use of traditional and digital photographic technologies and incorporating the computer as an artistic tool in those processes. The intent of the class is to provide students with the fundamental information and skills needed to analyze and produce photographs in both analog and digital media and apply those skills to both fine art and commercial environments. Students will gain competency in using industry standard software Adobe Photoshop, Film and digital cameras, scanners, as well as digital, traditional, historic, and experimental output options and apply those skills to real world applications. Creative and expressive approaches are strongly encouraged.

Four credits.
