Week 1 Wrap-Up

Gabriel Orozco, Cats and Watermelons, 1992

Hello Everybody!

Thanks for a great first class! We covered a lot of material today, so thank you for sticking with it. We will be shooting outside next week, so dress for the weather and don't forget to bring your camera!

You should be all set to post to the blog. I've posted a tutorial on the blog to show you how to make a post and upload videos, just in case you run in to trouble. If you have any problems logging in or uploading videos, let me know.

The class Dropbox (where I will post any handouts from class, including the syllabus and the supply list) can be found here.

On to this week’s homework:

1- Before the end of the weekend, post a photo to the class blog. This can be anything—one of your own pictures, a photo you like. Please be sure to tell us a little bit about yourself in the post.

2- Take 50+ photos every day (for a goal of 500 by the end of the week). Get used to taking your camera with you everyday. Don’t self-edit right now—just shoot. Experiment with the techniques we discussed in class today.

3-Before next class, shoot and post a photograph of something "invisible". You can interpret this any way that you like.

That’s it! If you have any difficulty accessing the blog, or if you just have any questions about the supply list or anything that we covered in the syllabus today (or if there is anything in particular you'd like to make sure we cover), please let me know.

I’m looking forward to next week!
