Take your digital photography skills to the next level with personal guidance and engaging photography assignments. This intermediate photography class is designed to help you master your camera’s manual settings while exploring the subjects that interest you most.
You’ll move beyond the basics of digital photography learned in Photography Basics (or the equivalent), while continuing to reinforce your photography techniques and manual camera operation, further developing the skills you need to be a photographer.
Over the course of this six-session photography class, you’ll work on bi-weekly shooting assignments covering a topic of your choice. Landscape, portraiture, documentary photography, still life, or other genres, are all possible subjects that you can dive into! With the direction of the instructors, we’ll explore examples from skilled photographers and discuss approaches to these different topics. Plus, you’ll learn photography composition techniques such as rule of thirds photography to take better photos. Additionally, you’ll get to present your photography for regular supportive group critiques.
An integral aspect of digital photography is processing digital files. During non-assignment weeks, students will expand their post-processing skills through our Adobe Lightroom Classic training, including importing, basic adjustments using the Develop module, and local adjustments.
