For the final project, you will be submitting a portfolio of 4-6 images that stand together as a cohesive body of work. The subject that you choose is completely open- it can be a documentary project, narrative, series of portraits, still-lives, a formal or abstract study, an experimental approach that combines another medium such as installation, performance, or drawing, or any other approach that would be of particular interest to you. Unlike the other assignments given in the class, this project does not have to take Florence and your experience of the city as subject matter, but it can. The photographs printed can be manipulated heavily through Photoshop or not manipulated at all, functioning as straight photographs. Images can be in color or altered to become black and white images.
The final project should consist of a series of prints that are printed to the best of your ability- be sure to adjust color balance, contrast, etc.
Please keep in mind the following important dates:
Friday, June 19: Project Idea Presentations, Initial Critique Session of Ideas
Monday, June 22: Work in Progress Critique
Friday, June 26: Final Critique (final projects and accordion book projects will be distributed in the residence before the group dinner)
It is essential that you have materials to show for the work in progress critique. If you do not participate in the critiques, you will receive a 0 for the day. Prints submitted for work in progress critiques do not have to be final prints- you won’t be handing anything in on these days. These critiques are for you to get necessary and helpful feedback for your project and are very important. Feel free to bring ideas/questions or anything that you need feedback on- whether it’s a conceptual concern, a technical concern- or just general advice.
