Black & White Photography Projects - Summer 2024

DESCRIPTION
Do you have an analog black & white project that you want to move forward with but could benefit from some ongoing guidance? Do you need a fresh pair of eyes, conversation with fellow creators, a little technical help, or just some focused time working on it? Then join us this summer quarter for Black and White Photography Projects. On the first day we will discuss your individual project proposal and what the next steps are to further develop your concept. Then we will dive-in and spend the quarter printing, sharing through critique, and working out the kinks to move your individual project forward. Along the way, we will touch upon various darkroom techniques and discuss the work of other analog darkroom artists. Join us for this quarter-long darkroom elective course and get ready to create, print, and share.

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR STUDENTS

• Weekly attendance is vital to student success in PCNW courses. We require that students attend the first meeting in order to retain their spot in the class. A waiver may be granted if permission is given by, and subsequent arrangements made with, both the PCNW Registrar and Faculty. Please see our Education Policies for details about attendance policies and academic expectations.
• Intermediate and advanced courses have prerequisites which students must satisfy prior to enrollment. Prerequisites may be waived based on experience or prior courses taken through other institutions. To verify that you meet the prerequisite(s) for a course, contact Jennifer Brendicke, Registrar at jbrendicke@pcnw.org.
• Students are required to provide their own camera, unless otherwise noted in the course description. If you have questions about camera equipment or resources, contact us at pcnw@pcnw.org.
• PCNW adheres to a strict payment, cancellation and refund policy. Please review our Payment & Refund Policies prior to registration.
• Additional materials and supplies, not covered by a materials fee for a course, are the responsibility of the student. Detailed information about course expectations, required texts and materials will be provided at the start of the quarter.
• Students should prepare to spend several hours per week completing assignments outside of class, which may require use of the PCNW facilities; view our Rental Rates for details about additional fees. Rental fees for use of PCNW Facilities are a separate cost from tuition.
