H82.1247 Studio 2 Credits
Instructor(s): Cate Fallon
Prerequisite: at least one college-level computer imaging course, including Photoshop: Creative Imaging or Digital Camera, or permission of the department.
While traditional photographic prints evoke a distinctive presence, newer digital printers allow for a similar sensibility of expressive possibilities approaching traditional printmaking. This 3-week workshop will explore a range of digital imaging and printing resources. The aesthetic and technical aspects of color will be discussed along with the implication of scanning, file preparation, resolution requirements and color management for printout. The subtleties of various output devices from laser and ink jet printers to large format ink jet plotters will be covered. The objective will be to discover and execute a printing method best suited for individual projects. Students will have the opportunity to complete a small project of their own. Class time will be devoted to lectures and demonstrations on scanning, color and color printing, slide lectures, group critiques and possible field trips.
This course requires a $290 lab fee.
