Course description:
You will learn basic photographic principles and techniques along with darkroom and laboratory procedures. Aimed at encouraging creativity, emphasis is given to developing a critical sense of the visual language that modern photography uses so expressively. An understanding of technical and critical skills in photography enables you to translate your ideas from other areas of art into the medium of photography.
Supplies List:Photographic material/supplies: You are expected to have a 35mm camera that permits manual adjustment of shutter speeds and apertures. You will also be required to purchase your own b/w film and paper for the class.
You will shoot a minimum of 15 and likely up to 25 rolls of 24 or 36 exposure film. Unless you are set on a particular film I would suggest a 400 ASA or 125 ASA film to start (for black and white film, use one of the following: Kodak Tri-X or Ilford HP5, HP4). I will tell you when to use 400 ASA or 125 ASA film. The cost of the film varies depending on the type. You will typically spend 3 to 6 euro for each roll of film. Photographic paper also varies in cost. The cost for a box of 50 sheets is 44 euros 7x9 1/2 in size.
Purchase 25 rolls black and white film (Kodak Tri-X or Ilford HP5, HP4, 125 ASA, 400 ASA). You can purchase your rolls of film in bulk at the beginning of the semester or as you have each assignment.
Purchase (for starters) a box of 50 sheets of “7 x 91/2” black and white paper (Ilford Multigrade RC, pearl surface, glossy or matte finish).Purchase 25 Negative sleeves. Negative sleeves are .24 cents each.Each student will receive a binder, there is no charge for the binders.Purchase a large folder or envelope for turning in photo projects. The folder can be purchase at a stationery store for under 4 euros.Purchase a journal book. A journal book of your choose can range anywhere from 2,50 to 12 euros.
Purchase a towel (used for the darkroom and developing film). A towel can be purchased at the supermarket for less than 5 euros.
Purchase an apron (I suggest not wearing “good clothing” on the days that you will be working in the darkroom or developing film). An apron can be purchase at San Lorenzo market or at a supermarket for less than 5 euros.
Purchase rubber gloves. They can be bought at the hardware store for less than 5 euros.
You must have, an apron, rubber gloves, and a towel. The purchase of these materials is for your safety when developing film and working with the chemistry in the darkroom.
