By Next Tuesday you need to
-Join this blog by clicking on the link blogger sent you (from me) that brings you to a sign up page to join the blog... you don't need to create your own blog.... just join this one. This is our classroom. When you post here, that is like coming to class.... If you are not posting, that is like skipping class. Coming to class is the most important component of your grade... along with the work you create for your portfolio. If you create a brilliant portfolio but avoid posting to this blog, the highest grade you could receive for this class is a "C".
-Set up your fotothing.com account and send me an email inviting me as your friend. That way I can add you to the class meeting area on fotothing. Post 6 -10 images per week at a minimum on fotothing... Comment on other students' work there. Use this blog to show us an example of what you are doing and invite others to view the rest of your work on fotothing.
-Read the syllabus and take a look at all of the projects listed.... You can work on them one by one or at the same time as the spirit moves you... It is very important that you work consistently through the class and not disappear... read through the Criteria for grading linked on the upper right of the blog...
-Download and install your image editing program. I recommend Photoshop CS3 available as a free download from http://adobe.com/downloads it will expire in 30 days though :-(
Picasa has been popular for Photo I and is free....
-Post a quick bio and hello to the blog... you should up load a photo of yourself too!
-By Tuesday night, post an example of the first project here on the blog and a link to your fotothing account where you will have 4 examples of the self portrait project....
That's it for the first week. If you have any questions, please email me at jnevins@albertus.edu
