DESCRIPTION

This unit combines a theoretical and practical approach to advertising photography. At the end of the course the student will be able to plan and realize an advertising photo assignment. Using slide presentations and group discussion, we will outline an itinerary throughout the main movements in the history of the medium and its evolution until today. There will be weekly practical exercises and one major project that the tutor will supervise and co-edit during the course. As the course is oriented to exchange students, special attention will be given to contemporary Spanish photography.
