Photography II in Black and White

In this intermediate course, which emphasizes the relationship between exposure, film development, and the finished print, students refine their technical and aesthetic skills in black-and-white photography. With approximately two-thirds of class time devoted to hands-on darkroom printing, students enhance darkroom skills, experiment with toners, explore different photographic papers and chemistry, and more. Assignments and critiques foster the development of both skills and style. Students are encouraged to develop film and do additional work outside of class.

Course Level / Prerequisite: Intermediate: You are familiar with a camera, whether film or digital. You understand aperture, shutter speed, exposure, white balance, histograms, and how to control focus. You are comfortable editing and processing your images. You may want to learn how to utilize your camera in a more thoughtful and articulate way, or learn more about lighting or how to utilize theoretical concepts in relation to your portfolio of work.
