Medium & Large Format Photography focuses on advanced camera operations and film and darkroom techniques using medium format and large format 4x5 view cameras. This course introduces more advanced photographic concepts through group discussions, readings, lectures, and individual projects, while continuing to emphasize aesthetic presentation. Additionally, various technical controls are investigated, including water-bath developing, bleaching and toning, archival printing, and zone system.Medium format and large format 4x5 view cameras are available for check-out from the photography area. Various technical controls are investigated, including water-bath developing, bleaching and toning, archival printing. The student is also made aware of historical and critical issues through a reading list and slide presentations. Group discussions are an integral part of this course. Prerequisites: (Declared Emphasis or Minor in Photography & Digital Imaging OR Declared Major in Film & Media Arts) OR Instructor Consent

This class is dedicated to studio lighting and medium, as well as large format studio camera operation. The course includes instruction in the use of strobe lighting, quartz hot lights, and reflector and soft box lighting. The course also includes operation of medium format and 4 by 5 sheet film cameras in the studio environment. A variety of subjects are covered, including still life and portraiture. Prerequisites: "C-" or better in (ART 2060 OR ART 3715 OR PHOTO 3715) AND Minor status in Photography.

Studio as Conceptual Practice will explore the technical and aesthetic capabilities of Lighting. Building on the tools learned in Photographic Studio, this course aims to give the participants practical experience within the confines of studio production, both pre- and post-production. It is designed to equip students with a working knowledge of the techniques used to control light in a studio or other controlled environment. Digital capture and film will be used to complete course assignments. Contemporary issues and concepts are explored through reading, visual research and discussion, and then applied through a series of visual problems.

This class investigates a variety of photographic processes that evolved in the second half of the nineteenth century. Students will explore the historical and chemical aspects of the following processes: pinhole photography, paper negatives, cyanotypes, Van Dykes, and gum dichromate prints. Students will also make enlarged negatives with ortho-litho film. There will be in-class writing assignments on the required readings from the textbook.

3.00 Credits
This class investigates two photographic processes from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Continuing from Alternate Photography I, students will explore the historical and chemical aspects of the following processes: palladium/platinum, and bromoil printing. Students will also make enlarged negatives with ortho-litho film. There will be in-class writing assignments on the required readings from the textbook.

3.00 Credits
This class focuses on making digital images more powerful and expressive through post-camera processing. To paraphrase Ansel Adams: The digital capture is the score, the print is the performance. Units of this class cover the advanced control of tonality and color, using large format digital printers, and an exploration of contemporary images and tools. Prerequisites: "C-" or better in (ART 2740 OR PHOTO 2740 OR ART 3700 OR PHOTO 3700) AND Minor status in Photography.

3.00 Credits
Digital Technology has affected every aspect of the photographic process. Historically, new tools have lead to new forms of expression. Using tools learned in the preceding classes, students will explore visual issues unique to digital photography. Students will develop their personal vision and explore extended possibilities of the medium through a series of projects based on questions about the nature of contemporary photography. This class also explores technologies (such as video and 3D computer modeling ) that are new to contemporary fine arts photography. This class assumes that students are well grounded in technical skills and are prepared to use digital tools to explore aesthetic issues and advanced concepts. Corequisites: "C-" or better in (ART 4740 OR PHOTO 4740) AND Minor status in Photography.

3.00 Credits
Conceptual Physics course which satisfies a General Education requirement for majors outside the science and engineering disciplines. The primary objective is to provide a solid foundation in physics principles, focusing on fundamental concepts and logical rather than numerical problem solving. Connections between abstract concepts and familiar objects or phenomena help students develop their physical intuition and demonstrate that the universe is predictable rather than magical.

Astronomy--from ancient to modern times. Central theme will be the attempt to understand the nature and origin of our solar system starting with early ideas of the cosmos, proceeding through investigations that led to the scientific revolution of the 17th century and culminating with the observations and discoveries made by the 20th-century space program. Topics will include apparent motions of the sun, moon, planets, and stars; seasons and eclipses; principles of light and telescopes. Current films of the planets and their moons, demos and other multimedia activities will enhance the course. The latest Hubble, Spitzer, Chandra and other modern satellite images will supplement the course. Discovery of thousands of planets orbiting other stars will be discussed and related to the creation of our own solar system.
