    COURSE DESCRIPTION
    Photography 2 is an intermediate yearlong course in photography designed to offer experiences with a DSLR camera.
    Various camera settings will be learned to offer greater creative and technical control. This course continues off the
    foundation from Photography 1, and encourages students to reflect on their visual literacy regarding both form and
    content of photographic images. The elements and principles of design as they relate to photographic composition
    are emphasized. Students also learn to examine images critically through weekly critiques. Intermediate digital
    processing techniques will be utilized using Adobe Photoshop. This class requires a time commitment outside of
    school to be successful.

    STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVE


    Artistic Philosophy: All students will be able to demonstrate an understanding of how to use research and revision
    strategies to create a body-of-work that expresses a personalized artistic philosophy. In communicating their artistic
    philosophy, students critique their art using analytic and empathetic responses in their interpretations.

    GRADING
    All projects and homework are graded based on a four-section rubric that correlates directly with the CO Visual Arts
    Standards. Standards & rubrics can be found on the course website. Overall grades are broken down accordingly:
    • 50% Product: Final Projects & Critiques 

    • 50% Process: Homework, Research, Daily Assignments, Quizzes, Journal 


    REQUIRED MATERIALS
    All students are required to fulfill the following: 

    ● $40 Art Fee: Elective visual arts courses cost $20 per semester. Upon registering for this course, this charge will be
    added to your student account. Please try to make payment for each semester within the first month. 


    CLASSROOM NORMS AND EXPECTATIONS


    BEHAVIOR: It is critical that art students act responsibly and treat others with respect. You are representatives of
    our class and school and expected to behave in a positive manner. Behaving otherwise may cause you to lose out-of-
    class assignment privileges. All work submitted must be school appropriate and original. Although ideas can be
    exchanged with other students, all compositions, photographs, collage work, and other artworks must be
    solely
 your own (See Originality and Artistic Integrity statement below). To do otherwise will result in failure of the
    project. Above all, students are expected to conduct themselves with honesty and respect for self, others and
    property.

    ORIGINALITY: Students must always use their own images for all class projects. Students are not allowed to work
    with published or copyrighted photographs or images of any kind unless special permission is given by the instructor.
    If special permission is given for a student to work from a published or copyrighted image, the image must be
    significantly altered (50%) so that it does truly become his/her own, in the student’s own artistic voice, and in the
    student’s own personal style and expression. Mere duplication of another person’s image, even in a different
    medium is not allowed. Students are always encouraged to work from their own vision and unique imagery.

    DEVICES: Students are welcome to bring their devices to class, however, if a device is distracting a student from
    instruction it will be confiscated for the remainder of the class period.

    ATTENDANCE: You are expected to be in class and on time. This is a collaborative course, and we need you present to
    do well and contribute to the class community. Hall Passes: Students are expected to ask the teacher before they
    leave to visit the restroom. Time outside class must not exceed 5 minutes. Passes will not be given during the first 10
    minutes or the last 10 minutes of class, unless it is an emergency.
