Course Description
This edition of the workshop will focus on photographic portraiture. Students will begin reading on the history and theory of portraiture and representation in photography, art, and cinema. With this grounding, they will undertake multiple creative portrait assignments in a wide variety of styles, including street styles, studio set-ups and lighting, editorial/fashion, documentary portraiture, and conceptual projects. CAMS 284 will collaborate with Susan Jaret McKinstry's course, The Victorian Novel, to create an exhibition in the Weitz Center.
