Creative Arts Champlain

For the final colour assignment in our Introduction to Photography course, we ask the students to put together a series of fifteen images based on a theme.  Sometimes the themes are purely formal – images dealing with colour or form or light. Sometimes these themes can be psychological in nature – emoting humour, or joy, or sadness. Sometimes the theme can take on a serious subject. Below you will find excerpts from a variety of intro projects. Their themes run the gamut from the serious – Kelsey Keeble-Laberge’s work tackles the body-image expectations that young women often face in contemporary society, to the formal – Alannah Lloyd, David Leroux and Frederique Roy all explore light, composition and colour.  Portraits play a role, as in Asa Shulman’s photos of his fellow cadets. And for pure lovable idiocy, check out Sean Durnin’s Prank photos.
