I don't know what I am going to call this project, I feel like it should have some uncreative or straight forward title like “Techniques of Digital Photography”.
An important part of the assignment will be the actual prints that I make to bring in for critique. In addition to the color correcting, I will also be concentrating on how to get great prints from of printers at school, the smaller one in particular.
I know the first issue I will have is learning to make a video tutorial. I know who to ask about that though so it shouldn't be a problem. Another is that the some of these issues are so big that I may have a hard time trying to fit all of these into the time allowed for the assignment. I guess thats the challenge. I think a month from now I could have a very interesting blog and work to show. My goal would be to have a minimum of ten images that have both technical and aesthetic appeal.
I think this is kinda interesting because it seems in art the techniques of art making has fallen by the wayside. It is either you are a techy-geek that does boring commercial work for uncreative people or a fine artist who is a jack of all trade and master of none. I think that I will try and create some images that hold within my normal creative subjects while having a strong emphasis on the techniques used to get them.
I think the grading criteria should be based on how useful and thorough the information presented is.
