There is a rich
tradition of self-portraiture in photography and one of the first subjects that
every student studying photography should photograph is themselves. In this
assignment students are to make five (5) very distinct images of him or
herself. Each image should express the concept or idea of “I”.
Hint: For images to be successful, shoot a lot of images. Pick a location that works for what is needed to convey the idea and then work it to death. No train tracks allowed or ducks and only natural light! No Flash!
The work will be
evaluated on concept and composition.We will not be printing these images. This assignment is inteded for use as the first media representation of your work.
