Photography
Courses in Photography have been designed to increase an understanding of the most universal language in the world today - that of photographic images. Courses are designed to provide experiences in the fundamentals of photographic imaging that lead to an understanding of traditional photographic techniques as well as experimental, non-traditional digital imaging.
Photographic image-making goals in the UNC Photography area fall into three interrelated categories:
- Aesthetic: Preparation of artistic images for exhibition. (Art Photography)
- Informational: Preparation of images that communicate. (Photojournalism)
- Commercial: Preparation of images that sell. (Advertising/Public Relations, Studio, and Illustration)
