Portfolio Progression

This semester you will work on creating a portfolio of 20 prints which you will turn in as a final project. This will be a work in progress throughout the semester with scheduled critiques along the way. You will need to turn in a proposal, along with 5 prints (8x10" or larger) for the first of the portfolio critiques on February 21st. The written proposal should explain what you are going to photograph, how you will accomplish the project (i.e. set up times with models, location scout, gain studio access, etc.), and if you have any ideas of how you would like to present the work (including a print size you're thinking about). Please print out the proposal and turn it in on the 21st or email it to me before 6pm on the 21st.
