Materials:
The school will provide all studio equipment, and has digital cameras to loan. Students are
required to sign a contract acknowledging responsibility for damaged or broken
materials before any cameras will be signed out to them.
Students who have access to a digital single lens reflex (DSLR) camera, or a digital pointand-shoot camera may choose to use their own camera for coursework. Students should
check with the instructor before, to make sure the camera would work for this class.
Notebook Students should dedicate a small notebook, or one section of a binder or
notebook, exclusively to photography class. This will store handouts, assignments, and
be a place to take notes on class lectures, as well as record information from photo
shoots.
