Media
and Culture, TR 2-4:30
This
course provides an opportunity for the advanced photography major who is
interested in pursuing a career in visual communication to deal with the
skills, theory, ethics and contemporary issues of newspaper and magazine
photojournalism. Students work collaboratively and individually on a
quarter-long newsworthy assignment that reflects a topic relevant to current
issues in the community. Students produce a complete portfolio based on the
chosen topic and present the work to the community in a final exhibition.
Through the investigation and visual exploration of a story pertinent to the
local or regional community, students are made more aware of the link between
photojournalism, the media and culture. Prerequisite(s): PHOT 324. Questions
