講義計画

Lesson 01 (1.5 ⇒ 1.5 ) (Monday 7th of April, 16:50-19.05)
Students should be advised in advance to bring samples of their photos so that I can see the level of their photographic skill. They can show me prints or they can give me some digital photos to look at via a memory stick, DVD, etc. They should show me maximum 10 selected photos each.
The students should be advised in advance to bring with them their cameras.
The students will be introduced to seeing photography as a medium for creativity and the basic techniques that will get them familiar with their cameras in order to be able to control the exposure, the depth of field, the difference between long and wide lenses, etc.
Examples of works by international photographers will be shown via a slideshow.

Lesson 02 ( 3 ⇒ 4.5 ) (Sunday 13th of April, 10:15-15:45) (1 hour lunch break)
Gathering at the university where I will talk with slideshow examples about the point of view, the use of light and composition, I will answer technical questions and I will explain in more detail the purpose of the day’s photo-shooting. The students will be given a theme for the day.
Photo-shooting on location with the students. We will go to the area near the university. We will start taking photos together while I will be checking the students’ photos on their cameras. Later the students will do photos in the area for one hour by themselves.
I will be waiting at the class for the students to return and when they are back I will comment on their photos and we will select the best pictures.

成績評価

Your grade for the course will be based on your participation in our class meetings and the work you produce for the classes. This, however, requires that you attend class regularly and also that you be prepared for class by doing any required research, shooting the required pictures and selecting the images to view in the class in advance. These you can bring on a CD/DVD or a memory card. 70% of your course grade will come from the effort you will put and the quality of work that you will be able to produce.
