Week 15 / April 28 and April 30

Your final project submissions are due on Thursday, April 30 and please follow all of the instructions outlined in this message.  Your 8 (minimum) images should be accompanied by a final project statement based on the proposal you submitted previously.  Please revise this statement to reflect the completed series.  I will also follow up soon with an invitation to join a final critique on Zoom on Thursday, May 7 from 6 - 8pm

Part of your grade for the project will be based on following all of these steps for submission. Submissions received after April 30 will be marked down ½ letter grade per day late. 

Attach 8 (minimum) images directly to an email (or multiple emails if necessary) as JPEGS– you don’t need to use OneDrive 

Images should be renamed with your full name and numbers 1 - 12 like this: temastauffer_01.jpeg, temastauffer_02.jpeg, temastauffer_03.jpeg

Images must be saved a JPEGS and resized with a resolution of 72ppi and 800px on the longest side

The only exception for renaming and resizing files is for those who shot and need to send images directly from their phones – if this is a case, please note this in your email 

Include your project statementas a Word Doc attachment with your JPEGS files

Put in subject line of email: Your name / Final Project

Week 14 / Tuesday, April 21 and Thursday, April 23

Thank you to everyone who sent me your images last week and completed your SAIs for the course. Please send me approximately 3-5 images again this week to review your work-in-progress.  I will send out instructions next week about how to submit your final images ahead of the deadline on April 30.

It’s important to send me images this week. Failure to send work-in-progress will negatively impact your grade for your final project.

Also, for those whose projects are focusing on how the pandemic is changing our lives and social landscape, please read information at the link below about contributing your images to an archive called Telling Your Story: Documenting COVID-19 in East Tennessee.  You are invited to contribute your perspective and become a part of history.

Week 13 / Tuesday, April 14 and Thursday, April 16


Please send me approximately 3-5 images this week to review your work-in-progress.  These are not your final image submissions which will be due on April 30 after you have edited your work to a final selection accompanied with a final project statement. 

Please make sure to resize your jpegs before sending them to me as jpeg attachments.  Follow these steps to resize images.

Go to Image and then select Image Size
Enter 72ppi for Resolution
Enter approximately 800 Pixels for the longest edge (Width or Height depending on Horizontal or Vertical Image) 
Enter (OK)
Choose Save As rather than Save to save a new version of this file as a reduced-sized jpeg
Your file should be 1MG or less 
Keep this small jpeg for emails and the web in addition to your larger version for print
See screenshot above 

If you still can’t attach all of your jpegs in a single email, please send a few in separate emails.

Please complete your SAIs for Digital Photography I this week.
