Course Description:

'' Digital imaging has opened a world of creativity and self-expression to everyone who has the desire to experiment. Choosing the Digital Photography option within the Integrated Media degree program means you’ll be broadly trained for the Creative Services industry to capture both still and moving images, incorporate sound to enhance a presentation, and have the ability to work with both words and images in a digital or printed form. This curriculum covers the basics of digital photography with special focus on web media and emerging formats. Our program is particularly well positioned to adapt to technologies as they emerge. Instructors are energetic, working professionals in the creative services field.

Upon completion of this two-year program, you’ll know how to take engaging photographs, use Photoshop to manipulate and enhance images as you create content that works in both a print and web-based environment. With your camera’s ability to show you instant results, you’ll be able to adjust light and the shadows exactly the way you’ve only dreamed you could. Just as important, you’ll have the vocabulary, technical and people skills to work in creative design teams. You’ll become very comfortable with the give-and-take of close collaboration.

If you want to know more about the entire process of imagemaking within the creative services industry, this is the program for you. Job titles for graduates of this program include:

Digital Imaging Specialist
Photo Editor
Digital Producer
Photo Assistant
Web Production Artist
Multimedia Designer
Freelance Photographer
From thumbnail-sized images to large format print applications, viewing on a portable media player or on a web log, you’ll be prepared to repurpose your photographic work for any medium. Color theory, lighting, exposure, digital workflow, and media management practices will insure that the thousands of images produced are captured, stored and accessible for future use.
Courses include opportunities to collaborate with other students in the Integrated Media Department (Broadcasting, Video and Graphic Design), and projects for real clients. Many internships are available in the Portland market, preparing students for immediate employment upon graduation. Students create several portfolios of their photographs and projects by the conclusion of the program: a traditional printed portfolio, a web-based portfolio site and a PDF portfolio suitable for sending to clients and prospective employers.

You’ll learn how to succeed in business as a freelancer or subcontractor, a common goal for creative people interested in more flexibility, control over your hours or location, or the kind of work you produce.
