The following project are from a 3rd semester sculpture class in our DISA profile.

The following images are from an assignment given in the Image and Light option class. The students were asked to make a series of black and white portraits inspired by a photographer or a period style. They picked photographers as disparate as Horst P. Horst, Diane Arbus, Katy Grannan etc. They also seemed to like the idea of the classical Hollywood portrait. Here are a few examples:

Recently, Donna Noonan and Janis Lundman were guests in the Film/Video profile’s “Portfolio” class.  Donna spoke in detail about the job of production designer, overseeing locations and set design for feature films and TV series.  And Janis gave the class valuable insight into the process of producing films and television.  The two have worked on the TV series Bliss, St. Urbain’s Horseman, and Durham County, as well as many other productions.
