Ok. Short and sweet... I will be teaching a photography class at The Studio starting on Wednesday, September 7. Please spread the word if you are in the King George area. I've included the descriptions of the classes below! Oh, and wish me luck. I need to create 3 class curriculums by September!!
Photographic Explorations for Kids
Students will learn how to use their cameras and how to take better pictures while having fun. They will learn Camera Basics which will include basic photographic terminology, how a camera works, and how to use its basic functions. Students will also learn Composition Basics, which will include the “Rule of Thirds”, types of lighting, and what to consider when taking a picture. We will have Critiques, where students will learn how to analyze a photograph, point out its compositional properties and express what is means to them. We will also be exploring creative ways to use photographs in art projects, which will include manipulating images, transferring images to various surfaces, and creating interesting ways to display photographs.
