Explore the creative possibilities of shaping your individual photographs into a new cohesive form through sequencing. Whether you’re preparing for a portfolio review, creating a gallery for your website, laying out prints for an exhibition, working on a photobook, making diptychs/triptychs, or devising a slideshow for an artist talk, it’s vitally important to be able to organize your photographs in a way that will amplify the meaning of the work for your audience. Through editing and sequencing exercises, we’ll examine image-to-image connections, devise unexpected juxtapositions, group pictures into storytelling narratives, and craft compelling photo essays. Lectures will include analysis of sequences from published works by established photographers and discussion of how to approach the daunting task of editing with a specific goal in mind. We will be working with a combination of provided images, pictures from the student’s own archive, and for a few assignments, taking new photographs to complete sequences. Students do not need a finished body of work to take this class.
