Photo Project

The purpose of this assignment is to force you to spend a day really seeing the ordinary consciously. Carry a loaded camera around with you and try to see things you don't normally notice. Take pictures of things that catch your attention from perspectives you might not usually experience. Once your pictures are printed, pick one picture, or a group of no more than four images to show to the class. Also write a brief statement (around a page) about how carrying the camera affected your vision.

Rolls of film taken to College Bookstore before 11:00 will be back the next day after 2:00. Disposable cameras take two days.

Due dates:

  • Pictures taken: Wednesday, April 16
  • Ready to present to class: Monday, April 21
