Visual studies and art appreciation
In this chapter – we will learn about what visual study means, why it is useful for photographers, how visual study and visual interpretation started from painting and the process used in photography review. To become a photographer, we need to know about Visual Studies, Visual Value in Society and Elements of Visual Design (These elements are also connected with Photography Design).
What is Art Appreciation? If artists knew how to review, appreciate or interpret the arts then he/she could review and understand still photography appreciation. We will also learn about the Process of Art Appreciation through this chapter. The meaning Visual Study is how you see the world and what are the reasons to understand, process or define any type of visual. We live in an increasingly visual culture. New technologies and philosophies of vision influence how we see our world, and ourselves and how we think about seeing itself.
Visual aesthetics of photography
In this Course We'll focus on why certain images just "work" and discuss the importance of proportion in photographic composition, starting off with a discussion of the photographic frame, and then moving onto subject placement, and then going to more specific forms of proportion such as balance, the rule of thirds, golden ratio and its variants. Students will also various ways of executing these concepts including use of fore/mid/backgrounds. We also understand the Color management and Analysis of Photographs.
Photovoice
This is not a mandatory program, you can decide after having discussion with your mentor Photography is about more than communication. Even photography is stills and is not capable to do movement, but photography always left effective impression in our mind. Photo Voice is an ideological activity of presentation. In Photo Voice, artist tries to define Self – Expressionism. So, when photographer does self-expressionism about him/herself in a way that his/her psychological framework which claims through photography, photo archive, self- presentation, self-expressionism-articulation.
Through Photo Voice, the photographer’s approach, which is called Photographic, and Experimental art attitude, will reveal out. Photo – Voice gives us an opportunity to explore and define about Artist Thought, Artist Lifestyle, Artist Likes or Dislikes, Artist Sociological Relations, Artist Thoughts towards Historical and Contemporary Artist, About Artist Itself, Artist Friends, Families, and Dream Projects of Artist. And we can say that The Ontology of Photo Voice is to understand True Realism and Pseudo Realism about Photographer.
