Images of Sydney - BENV2923 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description This course explores how an understanding of cities and how they are appreciated by those who live in them can be communicated visually. 'Images of Sydney' encourages students to capture the flavour and variety of living in Sydney on film. The course includes lectures on aspects of urban design and social documentary photography. Participants, using disposable cameras, take images which are critiqued and reviewed by the class. Students compile course journals covering not only reflections on the student's particular topic, but also photographic exhibitions visited, lectures attended, and relevant articles and books read during the semester. The major outcome is an end-of-session exhibition. Each student is responsible for presenting a collection of the photos they have taken with suitable captions and commentary conveying how the photographs help interpret the experience of the city.
