Everyday Project
Project #1: Everyday
For
this assignment you will be required to shoot everyday. When making your daily
photographs, consider photographing something that you weren’t expecting to
see, something you enjoy seeing everyday, the places, people and things around
you. Think about how photography can elevate the ordinary or how the camera can
be used like a visual diary. Shoot several photographs throughout the day and
select your favorite at the end of each day to turn in for critique. You will
do this for ten consecutive days.
Look
at artists: William Eggleston, Stephen Shore, Joel Sternfeld, Alec Soth, Byron
Wolf, Whitney Hubbs, and Tracey Baran for inspiration.
This
assignment will be discussed in class based on creative intention/concept,
formal and technical ability to make your photographs and fulfillment
assignment parameters.
For the critique: Bring
in all 10 files saved as screen resolution jpegs and named: LASTNAME_dayone.jpg, LASTNAME_daytwo.jpg and so on. We will
project these images in class for critique.
