The final project is an open assignment and opportunity to apply the numerous ideas we have explored term in a way that best suits you. What kind of working method did you enjoy the most? You don't need to think of only the recent printed assignments, but everything we have done that could be called art. Whether it was a game of charades, photographing symbols, eating food together, writing about other people's work in musical chairs, making collages, or just taking pictures of family members, this class has been about taking everyday experiences and twisting them in simple ways to make art. Don't make art; make what you already do into art.
The content of what you produce for the final project is up to you, but I will require a written, paper proposal submitted next Wednesday containing a general description of your project and the approximate number of images and prints you anticipate making. The proposal will be followed on Monday with a short, to be scheduled, meeting with me or Jason, to talk about what you wrote as well as what you have produced so far. Also, if you don't feel comfortable doing whatever you want for a final project, I will also create an alternate assignment which will be posted shortly.

If you are unable to attend, I will require a written assignment TBD to make up for your lack of participation.
Project redos and extra credit assignments will be due Wednesday, June 3rd.
If you are interested in using the studio again for your own exploration, please let me know and we can schedule time for you to use the studio with supervision. Because of the high-voltage nature of strobe photography, students are not allowed to use the equipment by themselves. Because studio photography is a new concept I would prefer that you not do it for the final project, but it could be a fun chance to make portraits of your friends or play dress-up.
