Teen Academy - Developing Your Portfolio [Online]

In this intermediate digital course, students will explore workflows for further developing a portfolio or body of work. Through individual assignments and critiques, students will discuss editing and sequencing their images for submission to colleges/universities, exhibitions, and awards. Students will expand upon ideas of theme, visual narrative, and image consistency and quality. All classes culminate with a virtual presentation of photographic projects and writings shared with family and friends.
