  • GAD 3413: Photographic Lighting

    3.00 Credits
    Temple University

    At the core of any commercial or fine art photographer’s practice is an in-depth understanding of lighting. Light is the fundamental element that makes a photograph possible, and every successful photographer’s control over light is the key to their success. This course will not only focus on allowing you to gain a thorough understanding of artificial lighting techniques, but also how to approach natural light situations better, and beyond that, to an understanding of how the two work in conjunction. By revisiting the fundamentals of the large format view camera, and developing an understanding of environmental and situational lighting techniques, you will learn different commercial and fine art approaches to working in a studio setting. You will also learn lighting techniques with digital and medium formats, as well as develop an understanding regarding the differences between digital capture and negative film. In addition this course will cover advanced exposure control, lighting on location, and product lighting.

    Note: This course is repeatable for credit. Prerequisite:    GAD 2441 (0171) or GAD 2451 (0172), and GAD 3412 (0173). Special authorization required for non-majors

  • GAD 3422: Contemporary Photography

    3.00 Credits
    Temple University

    We live in an extraordinary moment in the history of photography, a moment much hoped for and anticipated by many champions of the medium. Finally one can say without qualification that photography is a medium fully embraced by the contemporary art world. While there has always been a movement to look at and discuss photography as art, photography has never played a more central, critical and vital role in contemporary art then it does now. This course will look at both the role that photography plays in contemporary art and the role that contemporary art plays in photography. By surveying contemporary trends in photography, students in this class will develop an understanding of what exactly photography is now. At the same time the class will attempt to answer questions about what it means to be contemporary, about what the relationship between the contemporary and the historical is, and why this might be important. Through these problems students will be encouraged to develop personal work that addresses themes and ideas discussed in the class.

    Note: Open to Junior/Seniors. Special authorization required for non-majors. Prerequisite:    GAD 2441 (0171) or GAD 2451 (0172) and GAD 3412 (0173). Special authorization required for non-majors
