TYLER PHOTOGRAPHY COURSES AVAILABLE to NON-MAJORS There Are Currently Four Different Courses Available to Non-Majors
TYLER PHOTOGRAPHY COURSES AVAILABLE TO NON-MAJORS There are currently four different courses available to non-majors. They are: ART 0822 - Human Behavior and the Photographic Image How do photographs become more than just a pile of disparate images? Is there more to photography than that single "decisive moment" in the hunt and capture of an image? How do photographers comment on issues that are important to them? How can photographs tell a story? Is there a way one can use the art of photography to elicit change? In this class, students will use their digital cameras to investigate individual photographs, as well as series of photographs. We will look at photography in its historical context -- at the advent of documentary photography and photojournalism, and at narrative photography in its more contemporary form, as photographers use it to chronicle their own lives and to tell a story. Through the exercises of looking at and making photographic images, several core concepts of social work, along with theories of human behavior in the social environment, will be introduced. Students will learn not only about the place photography holds in our culture, but our culture itself, and the students' place in that culture. Students will critically analyze published photographs, as well as photographs made during the class. The semester will culminate in a class exhibition where students will be given the opportunity to present their photographs to the public, demonstrating their understanding of human behavior in the social environment. NOTE: This course fulfills the Human Behavior (GB) requirement for students under GenEd and Individual & Society (IN) for students under Core.

PHMD 201 - Photography I: View Camera, Fall 2013 Writing Prompt No
PHMD 201 - Photography I: View Camera, Fall 2013 Writing Prompt No. 3 Read the chapter Once Upon A Time posted under Course Documents. Ideally, read this before you begin the Constructed Narrative assignment, as it will provide inspiration as you develop your idea. In the reading, identify and write about the two following things: 1. A statement, sentence, or paragraph that resonates with you or makes you consider photography in a way you had not before. Write it down, and explain why it resonates with you. 2. Formulate a question for discussion in regards to the reading. This should be something you don't understand or don't agree with and why. Be critical and inquisitive. “There were a lot of things I found interesting in the reading of Once Upon a Time. However one thing that resonated with me was the fact that most artists that create a narrative with photographs are using specific imagery and narratives that are specific to a place or culture. For example in Sarah Dobias Red Room, there is an intentionally open - ended narrative that is happening. There are personal choices that she decided to leave out of the frame which is unclear to the viewer. Also the blanket could be taken many different ways psychologically. Another thing that I found interesting was that Backstrom photographs do not contain a human element. Thus asking the viewer to engage with instituionalized and commercialized aspects of the scene. I guess a question that I would ask many of these artist would be, what makes a constructed narrative so strong? Does there have to be a human element present in the equation? The reason I ask this question is because most of the images that are within this reading have figures/models within them and some do not.

Contemporary Photography and the Reality Effect
Contemporary Photography and the Reality Effect [edit] [edit] Introduction In today’s hybridized artworld, the art object known as the photograph is changing both in subject matter and the tools and techniques used in its production. The images are produced for different contexts such as documentary projects, portraiture, and fine art galleries. Photography’s richest quality — the ‘having-been-there’ -- drives viewers' demand for images and has propelled the artform since its inception. In contemporary photography, creative visionaries like Andreas Gursky and Peter Funch use photography as a way to explore hidden themes such as chaos and order, repetition and harmony. It is the second order of reality that prompted Roland Barthes to say, "A photograph is always invisible, it is not it that we see." What we see is a reflection of ourselves, the world held still by a clicking shutter or by a multi-layered Photoshop image. The natural world reproduced via a mediated experience — the camera and print — is still the pedestal on which photography rests, but increasingly the photograph reflects a culture in which computers and technology play a central role in the art making process. The conventional genres of photography range from a direct, almost clinical recordings of the world, to ironic, post-modern interpretations of today’s materialism. As contemporary photography becomes more conceptual, its artists reveal the hidden reality behind themes like the environment, street life, loneliness, and love. A tension has arisen between photography as a form of documentation and a medium to express feelings, emotions and the artists' visions. The boundaries are blurred.

Massey Submitted to the Program in Media Arts and Sciences, School of Architecture and Planning, on August 8, 1996, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Media Arts and Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Abstract This thesis explores the application of machine vision technology to creating digital pho- tographs from video sequences. This class of photographs, called “salient stills” can have various aesthetic looks depending on the particular video sequence from which they are derived, or from user specified estimation or rendering controls. As a narrative medium, photography is different from cinema. Cinema or video storytelling relies on the evolution over time to convey the story. The context of the story can be presented before, during, or after the content of the story is revealed. In conventional photography, the single image does not usually provide contextual information.
