Photography & Composition — In this course, we will outline: The key components of a “correct” composition in photography. How to understand and effectively use techniques such as the rule of thirds, leading lines, natural framing, negative space, color, shape and form, shadows/light quality, balance, symmetry, and depth/perspective. How to evaluate photographs for compositional strength and balance. How to capture a set of photos demonstrating some of the compositional techniques discussed. The key focus of the class is not just snapping a photo, but learning to use composition techniques to transform a snapshot into a great photograph.
