LLART 296 - Visual Storytelling through Photographs

Improve your narrative skills as your own personal photographic style comes to light. Discover specific aspects of visual storytelling including: point of view, selecting subjects, and connecting with our surroundings. You'll learn how to work with clients, friends and family members without posing them, and work with natural light in a faster paced setting. In addition to technical and aesthetic concerns, you'll also come to understand how compelling photographic stories can be used for social good. Class includes a group field trip, but each student's goal will be to find a subject outside of class they are passionate about and photograph it as a narrative in a unique and compelling way. Prerequisite: Nuts and Bolts (LLART 193) or Digital Photography, Introduction (LLART 115) or take our quiz: go to www.lifelong.utah.edu or call 801-587-5433.
