NC STATE IN BLACK & WHITE
Instructor: Katy Walls
An introductory class perfectly suited for NC State students, alumni and the community who wish to visually explore a few memorable sites on campus while learning the art of B&W photography! On the first evening, your instructor will provide impromptu instruction as she leads the class around campus where they will learn to compose the light and motion to be captured in their SLR film cameras. Bring your own camera or use a Crafts Center loaner! The students will process their exposed film and spend the remainder of this class camped out in the darkroom exploring the traditional B&W printing process. Students in this hands-on class will have the opportunity to create a few keepsake visual memories of life on our campus.
Monday evenings for 4 weeks, 6:30 - 9:30 pm, beginning June 3

Instructor: Gary Knight
Get close to your subject! This class will begin with a Thursday evening session aimed at equipment and technique used in capturing stunning close-up photographs. Then, early Saturday morning, while light is good and the dew is on the vine, students will gather at the JC Raulston Arboretum where they will work to capture the best of NC flora. After breaking for lunch, the class will reconvene at the Crafts Center to share successes and discuss how their shots could be made better.
