Course Description:

'' You love to capture an instant or convey an idea. Burn an image into peoples minds. Once an image is preserved, it can be presented as is, or manipulated for a desired effect—so you can show the world as it could be. Photography is all about combining the artistry and the expertise needed to present the images we see in newspapers and books, and on billboards and websites. It involves composition and light, plus a wide array of technical skills, including utilizing digital-imaging software. Whether the work is done in a studio or on location, the range of photography jobs and venues is endless. Wherever you land, you’ll have the opportunity to communicate...without saying a word.

At The Art Institute of Colorado
Get your start with the basics: composition, lighting and the appropriate equipment. From there, you’ll learn about color and design. Immerse yourself in portraits, advertising projects, as well as editorial and digital–imaging software programs. You’ll develop your business skills, along with your résumé and interviewing technique. It all comes together with a completed portfolio that shows perspective employers exactly what you do best.

After Graduating
Take your skills wherever you want to go. Specialize in news, sports, product, portrait or fashion. You’ll be prepared for entry-level positions such as photographic technician, photographer’s assistant, digital-imaging artist, product–or still-life photographer, or photoretouch professional. Work in a studio, or at advertising agencies, publishing houses, photo labs, production companies, or at a newspaper or magazine. Freedom comes with freelance work in journalism, or owning a business that focuses on your specialty.

Picture your career path, and follow whatever clicks for you.
