Blog Post 6- Photographer for Emulation

Due by 5:00pm on Friday, October 21

By Friday evening, choose a photographer for the emulation project and create a blog post. In the post you should explain your reasoning for choosing this particular photographer, describe their work, style and approach, and explain what you hope to focus on while looking at their work. This post should include several examples of their work and the writing component should be at least 2 paragraphs.

HW

Due Thursday, October 20

As part of your research for the Emulation project, visit the library and check out one photobook/art book including the work of any photographer and bring it to class on Thursday, October 20th. Together we will look at the books and build a collection of possible options.The book does not have to contain the work of the photographer you choose, but it is important that you look at a number of photographers before making your decision. I want to see that you have been actively looking at different artists, so I would like to see a short list of names that you have narrowed down. If you already have one particular artist in mind, I still want you to look into other photographers so you can become familiar with more work and see what's out there.

So, where are the photobooks in the library?
If you have already looked online at the library catalog for "photography," you'll know that the photography books can be found on Dimond-Level 2 in the TR section.

Requirements:
Bring photobook
Narrow down and bring list of possible options

Critique 2- Show Not Tell/Self-Portrait

Tuesday, October 18

1. 5-7 prints ready to hang and turn in (portfolio)

2. Those 5-7 images posted on your blog before critique

For this critique, you do not have to post contact sheets of all of your images taken. I have seen your work in progress in class. Your images should show something about yourself. You will not be explaining your work at the beginning of your critique, so make sure that your images express what it is you're trying to say-- don't rely on your words. We will be hanging four students' work at a time. Please begin hanging your work before class so we can begin promptly at 2:10.
