FA 271 - Alternative Photographic Processes
Semester Hours: 3
Spring
This course explores alternatives to traditional printing. Students use hand-applied liquid photographic emulsions on art paper, contact printing from negatives enlarged using ortho-litho film. Processes include silver, platinum/palladium, cyanotypes, toning and pinhole cameras. Students explore each medium through assignments that encourage creativity, experimentation, and technical proficiency. Class presentations on historical and contemporary photography help students in their assignments. In addition to class discussion and labs, there is a museum/gallery visit.
