J213 Visual Storytelling: Realeyes Magazine

An in-depth documentary photo class where students will work photographing stories about California and its people and will try to visually create a singular photo essay on subjects such as immigration, schools, , urban sprawl, development, the environment  etc. You will work throughout the term on one in-depth project attempting to reduce a tiny area of the moving world to a set of still images that convey what the viewer needs to know about what you saw. This course will focus on developing a personal style while concentrating on long-term class goals of publishing our magazine . The class culminates with a collaborative body of work edited for publication and inclusion in the annual Realeyes magazine, and a presentation of 10-12 final images.
