All upcoming Studio Arts: Photography classes

Learn to harness digital tools to create powerful black-and-white images with the emotive power seen in works by Edward Weston, Paul Strand, and Alfred Hitchcock.

Learn the techniques required to capture great nighttime photos, including how to use exposure modes, exposure compensation, white balance, and ISO. For the second session, meet in the field to photograph the World War II Memorial, Washington Monument, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, Korean War Memorial, and Lincoln Memorial.

Learn exactly what a camera obscura is and how this simple technique once used by da Vinci and Vermeer works. Find out about the beginnings of the camera obscura and its creation of images and then make your own “dark chamber.” (World Art History Certificate elective, 1/2 credit)
