Art Courses

General Art Class

Ever wondered about some of the benefits of high school art classes? In addition to a different type of thinking and opening a flood of creativity, art classes provide additional advantages for growing teens. There are numerous lessons that art classes provide to students that other classics, like typical mathematics and science courses, cannot.

Photojournalism

Photojournalism will consist of imaginative ways to tell stories using photography. Photojournalism can be an art itself. It introduces students to the world of photography and journalism. The law, ethics, and history of photography will complement the units of study to focus on aspects of the middle school yearbook sections including sports, academics, clubs/activites, teachers, students and community. Students will also learn operation and care for multiple cameras, photo editing techniques and teamwork/ management skills.

Students will be asked to do their own research and use programs such as Animoto, PhotoStory, Prezi, and PhotoShop to begin sharing their work.

The Loyalsock Township School District’s Moodle site will be used to  access and submit work.

 

Digital Photography

This course will help the students become well rounded in the fundamentals of digital photography. Students will, generally, receive basic instruction, demonstration, and see samples of the desired outcomes, at the beginning of each period.  They will be allowed to go outside and shoot assignments, based on what they are learning. Perhaps the most useful part of classroom instruction will be daily reviews of photos students have shot the previous day(s).

The Advanced Digital Photography students continue to build skills both in taking photos using digital cameras and also in production in using Industry Standard software such as Adobe Suite for digital editing.
