Instructor: David Ulrich

The generation and production of a photographic project, leading to a cohesive body of work, encourages an in-depth investigation of an idea, a subject, or a working question. The photographic world of galleries, commissions, grants, and exhibitions often requests a small portfolio of works that can hang together and reflect your interests, commitments, and working practice over a moderate amount of time on a sustained exploration. Bodies of work, rather than individual photographs, are the currency of the fine art and documentary streams of the medium.
This class addresses the challenges and opportunities of creating a body of work on a single theme ranging from:
- generating your initial, driving idea,
- sketching out the early phases of a project,
- developing the narrative or storyline of the project content,
- editing and sequencing,
- and, finally, shaping the work into the matrix of your ideal outcome, whether a book, exhibition, website, or other means of presentation or publication.
Through lectures, discussions, slide shows, assignments, and critique, participants learn about the nature of creating and shaping individual projects and are asked to explore and create a small body of work over the duration of the class. Participants may begin new projects or work on existing bodies of work, with the intent of creating a small cohesive portfolio by the end of the class.
Open to photographers of all levels and with any type of camera, including cell phones.
Class takes place on Zoom software. Please submit 6-8 jpg images, representative of your work, for the first class. Instructor will send Zoom link and instructions for submitting images through Dropbox or Google Drive prior to the first class.
