Students must have a digital camera, and a laptop for classes. In this course, students will become familiar with how to create a photograph with a digital camera, and how to use photographic techniques to control the look of an image through post-production techniques. These will be developed with good digital asset management practices by using Adobe Photoshop. Students will also learn an introduction to photographic history and visual literacy. This course introduces the fundamental principles of photography and its history for universal applications and is available to all majors. All those participating will need to have a DSLR that shoots in RAW and is at least 10 megapixels to take this course.*This course does not fulfill the Arts Core
