About this course
This course is an introduction to experimental and nontraditional photographic processes through the use of analog and digital photography. Students will view both historical and contemporary approaches to camera and darkroom use in the creation of photographic imagery. Students will also make enlarged negatives, create cyanotype and VanDyke brown prints, tone and hand color images, and use digital imaging to emulate these and other traditional processes while producing an engaging and expressive collection of images.
