Upcoming Dates

After watching the Lynda.com documentary series “Artist Series with Hillman Curtis,” chose one designer to research online, and make a poster.

Poster requirements:

The poster should include:

Examples of the designer’s work
Biographical details (for example, where the designer lives, where they are from, where they were trained/went to school, what they are passionate about, why they became a designer, what they love about design, what they hate about design, etc).
Consider placement, size, scale and color to make the poster easy to read and visually interesting to look at.

Choose ONE of the following designers:

Shoot MINIMUM 40 images.
Keep camera in Manual Mode, RAW file format.
Practice making a good exposure.
Subject matter is up to you. Experiment with camera angles as you get more comfortable making a good exposure.

Save all RAW files on your local hard drive

Create a new folder under Assignments and name it Exposure_YourInitials

Export your chosen 40 exposures to this folder. Unretouched Versions only Please
