Photography I
Final Project: Life in Quarantine
GOAL: Your goal for this project is to create a series of 6 successful, cohesive images in response to the theme of Self-Quarantine. You may interpret this theme in whatever way you see fit. Your final images may utilize portraits, self-portrait, still life (these are objects arranged on a table with the intention of being photographed), or any combination of these themes. You will ultimately submit 5 images to the Houston Center of Photography's exhibition opportunity titled Togethering. You can find more information about the call for entry here.
Use this project as an opportunity to express your feelings about the current situation. We are all experiencing a profound moment in history. Sometimes it can be difficult to put your thoughts into words. Let your camera speak for you.
DUE DATES:
Monday, 4/27: Project assigned. You will shoot over week towards your project. I will not assign a minimum number of images, but you should aim to shoot at least 150 images to be narrowed down to 3 for soft critique.
Wednesday, 4/29: We will meet via Zoom at 8:50 AM to go over a few examples and answer any questions.
Friday 5/1: You will turn in your 3 strongest images by noon for online soft critique. Your images do not have to be processed yet.
Wednesday, 5/6: We will meet via Zoom at 8:50 AM to check in and answer questions you might have.
Friday 5/8: You will turn in your 6 strongest images by noon for online soft critique. You should be narrowing down to your final 6 and processing your images at this point.
Monday, 5/11: You will turn in your final 6 files via your lastname_firstname folder in Google Drive. You will also submit your 5 best images to the HCP call for exhibition located here: https://hcponline.submittable.com/submit/165364/togethering
