With ten years of teaching photography in a variety of settings to a variety of ages, and over 20 years of working as a professional photographer, Ms. Sue shares some of her own work offering helpful background information on what it took to create certain images both technically and creatively. 

-New project each week. Depending on the student's level, basic effort might require 1 hour per week. **To excel and tap into blending technical and creative skills, I recommend more than an hour - spread out over the week. 

During class discussions and on Padlet (our photo gallery posting place) the instructor will give verbal and written guidance.
Students will learn to self-assess and peer assess.
Last project preferably submitted through Google Slideshow.

55 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.

- We'll pull from the instructor's professional photography, historical masters of photography, and film stills to highlight the directing and cinematography choices. All classtime slideshows will be provided as a pdf in the Outschool classroom if students wish to review material. 
- Charts of the Elements of Art and Principles of Design will be provided as pdfs
