Digital Photography

Final Course Evaluation.

What was the most valuable Skill you learned during this course?

The most valuable skill I learned in Digital Photography is knowing how to tune up pictures so they look less blue, green or purple, and more like a real picture. Also learning how to get rid of wrinkles.

What project did you most enjoy? Please explain

The project I enjoyed the most was the Tunnel Book, because even though it was a pain in the butt to put together, the overall project was a cool experience and a form of art I hadn’t considered before and want to do again.

What project did you least enjoy. Why? Be honest

The project I enjoyed the least was the Artist Rendition project. I don’t have anything against it, but I don’t really like trying to re-create something.

What didn’t you like about the course? Please be honest

The only thing I didn’t like was that we didn’t go outside enough to use the camera and what the different functions mean. I took the course thinking I would learn more about how to use my camera and why different settings did different things to images.

What did you find helpful, useful and enjoyable about the course?

I found the layer overlay with 50% grey helpful for touching images up without the image looking overly edited. The clone and the patch tool useful and a fast way to fix things, and I enjoyed going out and taking pictures.

If you could change anything about this course what would it be? Please explain and be honest.

If I could change anything, it would be more about the camera and less about the photos. I did learn a lot, but I want to know more about my camera and how it works.

Did you find the online Gallery useful? Why or why not?

I didn’t really use it, so I guess I could say it wasn’t, mostly because I want to find my own style and not look at other peoples work for inspiration.

What did you think about the BLOG network?

Sort of annoying, but that’s only because school computers are not the greatest. At home though it’s great.

What would you like to learn more about?

I want to learn more about the way my camera works.

10. If a second course was created what types of project or aspects of Photography would you like to focus on?

I would like to focus on my camera more, and projects where the photos show how well we understand our camera’s functions.

Do you feel you have a basic understanding of Photography? Why or Why not...be honest.

I feel that I do have a basic understanding, because I have used the lessons learned outside of class.

Did you put forth %100 percent of your effort into each shooting assignment why or why not?

I did put all my effort into my pictures.

Do you feel you could have put forth more effort in this course in terms of utilizing class time to it’s fullest potential.

I could have, but I feel I have done my best.

What was the most frustrating aspect of the course?

Trying to use my camera, because sometimes the shutter wouldn’t be fast enough or the lighting wasn’t working for me.

What was the most rewarding aspect of the course?

The most rewarding aspect is producing great images.

Do you feel you utilized class time effectively?

Yes, I feel that I used class time effectively.

Do you feel your knowledge of digital editing strengthened.. Please explain (why or why not)

My knowledge of Digital Editing did strengthen because I did learn things I didn’t know before, but I want to know more about my camera.

Did you take advantage of the software in class and the camera issued..Did shoot outside of the weekly photo assignments? Why or why not?

I did take advantage of the software in class, and it helped to have my own camera because I didn’t have to worry about turning it back in and I already knew how to work it.
