Study Photography


 

How to study Photography by ClaudiaPat

"it was about time"

How I did it: saw a course announced on the newspaper and decided I wanted to go for it. Started asking around if someone was selling a used camera and found one in mint condition, bought it and the rest is history...

Lessons & tips: -observe, there can be a million shots in a single place, -take tons of pictures (I learned more from taking pictures than from the course itself)
-learn to "smell" light and use all light sources to your advantage
-admire other photographers and their works, it can be inspirational
-look at life as if its a movie, will open up your perspective and give you great photo ideas

    Kyna has Forensics camp, which is SUCH a pain!

    Learning, always. 4 months ago

    I guess we all are learning about photography, even if we don’t take classes. I just can’t wait to get a new camera, so I can go outside and have the time of my life(:

    neonhearts is learning to exist

    I start this Monday 9 months ago

    And I’m so very excited, yet also extremely nervous about meeting new people and embarking on this epic journey.

    I think I need to gag my brain sometimes and stop it from worrying unnecessarily!

    I’ve started preparing by reading up on some books and looking at some websites, starting new photographic projects (see my start 26 things goal) to get the juices flowing!

    neonhearts is learning to exist

    I started the first step!! 10 months ago

    I’ve applied to get into a Certificate IV in Photoimaging – I had to submit a portfolio.

    I only found out about the class a week before the folio was due, so that week I was rushing around to get it done and sent…but I did it!

    AND I GOT IN!!!

    I am so excited and so proud of myself :)

    The next stage of my life is beginning :D

    ID 10 months ago

    It turns out that I need to have a specific camera to take the classes. In order to get it, I plan to to apply for credit card. However, they required me to have state ID, so this is the step I should take very soon.

    Next step is to translate the transcript. Already order the tax form, so one little step at the time (better than none, right?)

    Ballatrina is at work

    A wee while away yet 12 months ago

    As part of my Bachelor of Creative Technologies, with a major in Interior Design, I can also minor in Photography, which is my plan. This is still a while away yet though, as I need to finish my correspondence papers first (see my list) before I can go and study this. I’d like to maybe take a community college course in digital photography though, just to keep interested!
