Visual Storytelling
Visual Storytelling Through the Lens This photo-based studio course examines the ways images work together in succession to build narratives. Students will study contemporary and historical approaches to the photo essay in addition to authoring their own stories with images they have taken or sourced by other means. While we will discuss the basics of image making, the class is focused on the sequencing of images. Students may use any type of camera for this class including cell phone cameras and no prior photographic knowledge is required. The class will culminate in a web-based slideshow and printed book projects for each individual student.

You get what you put into with this course. It is relatively easy and the projects are pretty open-ended. If you pay attention and put in effort, you will take away a lot. The professor is awesome and helps you create your best work.
I really liked this class. It was open ended and allowed you to be creative. The class is very lecture heavy and sometimes they can be very boring. Honestly, a lot of the lectures, you can find tutorials online. But, overall a really fun class for majors/minors and easy art class for a distribution requirment that doesn't require a lot of art skill
